In 'Phantom Halo', two brothers, Samuel and Beckett Emerson, struggle to make ends meet as their father, Warren, squanders any money they bring home on gambling and drinking. The brothers hatch a plan for a robbery but later decide against it. Instead, Beckett seizes the opportunity to make some easy money by counterfeiting in hopes of repaying his father's debts. However, when Beckett's plan goes awry, the family must face the consequences and decide whether to change their ways or not.
Directed by Antonia Bogdanovich, 'Phantom Halo' (2014) is a drama-thriller that explores the struggles of the Emerson family, who barely scrape by due to Warren's gambling addiction. The film delves into themes of desperation and questionable means to achieve financial stability. Each family member finds solace in their own way - through Shakespeare, comic books, and love affairs. The movie is notable for being directed by a woman, adding a unique perspective to the genre.
