Brad Raider makes bold choices and takes big risks as an actor, writer, director and it pays off as the final product is very impressive and unlike any other directorial debut I've seen. Kensho tells the story of a womanizing, alcoholic doorman, on a self-destructive tear, trying to deal with a tragic loss and struggling to find himself. The film's simultaneous descent into New York City's night life and underworld is intriguing and makes this the kind of film where you can't look away as we're so drawn to the protagonist and the sometimes terrible, other times hilarious, and ultimately fascinating choices he makes. The supporting cast makes this piece even stronger. This film is truly an undiscovered gem.
