Cliff, a traveling salesman drowning under the weight of providing for his family and the myth of the American dream, finds himself on a dangerous path after a chance encounter with Ricky, a colleague from a dark past.

Critics Reviews:

• “[W]hatever its shortcomings, including too much solemnity and not enough jokes, there’s no denying that the film creates a powerful mood and sustains it.” – Matt Zoller Seitz (RogerEbert.com)

• ““Bolstered by a strong, poker-faced ensemble with the good sense to underplay whatever menace each brings to the table, “Blood for Dust” does a fine job of making a familiar gambit feel unpredictable.” – Peter Debruge (Variety)

• “The film is held together by the intensity of its haunted-looking cast and the dour atmosphere.” – Steven Nguyen Scaife (Slant Magazine)
