Directed by Aitch Alberto (Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, Frameline47) and starring Nava Mau (Baby Reindeer), The Long Con is a desert-set crime romance about a runaway bride and her grifter lover reunited at a roadside motel after a con goes sideways. With stolen cash, sirens on the horizon, and betrayal simmering between them, their love plays out as foreplay, power struggle, and survival tactic. Violent, tender, and darkly funny, the film builds toward a single truth: no matter how badly they hurt each other, running alone was never an option — they were always destined to choose each other.
