Don McKay, a high school janitor who leaves his hometown after a tragedy, returns 25 years later to rekindle a romance with his old flame, who is dying, but this homecoming brings McKay more than he bargained for.

Featuring Thomas Haden Church, Elizabeth Shue and Melissa Leo.

Written and Directed by Jake Goldberger

The Score: Sampled and ambient sounds mixed with acoustic and electric guitars and cello. Recorded in my studio.


“…with Don McKay, (Steve) was able to negotiate the line between satire and dead seriousness while still keeping the authenticity of his compositions ethically in tact. It is almost impossible to do, yet he pulled it off beautifully.” - Jake Goldberger, director


“A subtle score that speaks a sense of loneliness and intrigue….is excellent.” - Amazon review
