A retired hairdresser has given up on life and now lives in a nursing home in Sandusky, Ohio. But when he gets word that a former client’s dying wish was for him to style her final hairdo, he sets out on an epic journey across Sandusky to confront the ghosts of his past–and collect the beauty supplies necessary for the job.

The legendary German character actor Udo Kier stars. (Kier’s acting career goes back to the 1960s and the films of Werner Herzog and Rainer Werner Fassbinder.) Linda Evans co-stars Her career also dates back to the early ’60s–anyone remember The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet?

Directed by Todd Stephens, Swan Song is a comical and bittersweet journey about rediscovering oneself and looking gorgeous while doing so.
