Written and directed by Lawson, Whelm is a mind-bending odyssey of two estranged brothers who get tangled in a rivalry between a legendary bank robber and an eccentric at the height of the Great Depression before finding they are a part of a larger historic scheme. The feature was shot on 16mm film on location in Indiana and stars Delil Baran, Ronan Colfer, Dylan Grunn, Francesca Anderson, and Grant Schumacher.
