Neon exit signs. The only way out, is through. Rhys Hartman just has to do so without losing teeth.


--


Rhys Hartman is forced to face himself and his addictions after the startling death of his mother. Moving in with his estranged brother in the aftermath of a messy funeral, Rhys struggles in therapy, with his drug use, and the ugly truth of his mother and the history of who they both are.

A story of wounds and healing, of addiction and sobriety, of grace and forgiveness for the sake of yourself, and pouring one out to a new era, cigarettes in the winter time, a broken clock, shattered noses and fractured wrists, barfights and teeth flying, a raw, ugly truth:

THAT NEON EXIT SIGN

The only way out, is through.
  








If you can't get out of your comfort zone, you'll never find what you're looking for. Don't make things quick and easy to feel better short term. Make a change and then you'll feel better longer term.
