There is a current trend in independent cinema, and it is a welcome one at that. You have Cold in July, Blue Ruin and last year's Hell or High Water, all slow burn thrillers with a huge impact. Happily, we have yet another dark and twisted small town tale brewing courtesy of The Scent of Rain and Lightning.
