What’s meant to be a documentary about St. Vincent’s music career devolves into a mind-bending distortion of reality once the singer hires her best friend as its director. Deliriously warping the mockumentary template, Portlandia veteran Bill Benz’s directorial debut defies genre categorization.
Bill Benz started as a TV editor and went on to direct the third season of Kroll Show, as well as multiple episodes of Portlandia, Man Seeking Woman, Son of Zoran, Lady Dynamite, Detroiters, and three specials for Adult Swim. The Nowhere Inn is Bill’s feature directorial debut.
