From the mind of Vilan Trub (Susie Q) — and the muscle of Michael Madsen (who executive produced) — comes The Dirty Kind, “a hard-boiled movie for a hard-boiled world.” The film marks Trub’s sophomore effort, and it strives to give new perspective to the familiar detective story and illuminate areas of Queens, New York, which have yet to be prominently featured cinematically.

Raymond (Duke Williams), a young private investigator specializing in divorce, gets too ambitious and takes on a case that involves more than just snapping pictures of cheating couples. While searching for the estranged daughter of a client, Raymond discovers that she works as a stripper under the name Natalie Cottontail. Natalie’s exploits bring together a desperate collection of lost souls – sucking everyone down a drain of despair.
