Gummo tells the disturbing and often melancholic story of two young boys living in the aftermath of a deadly tornado that destroyed their small Ohio town. The film, often uncomfortable and a masterclass in shock, utilizes unconventional hyperlinked narratives to reassess the idea of a “beginning, middle, and end” and bring fiction to the brink of reality.
