Lament for the Artist (2012)

It is a dark and exciting psychological thriller about Bruce, a professional killer in crisis over his disintegrating home life and the dream he never fulfilled. Bruce is spiraling out of control. The film digs deeper and deeper into the festering self-consciousness of a regretful man burning for redemption and a new life as an 'artist'. He wants nothing more than to be free of the constraints of his compulsive habits, his unrelenting boss, and his needful wife. Bruce seeks escape through mental diversion and failed attempts to express himself in more creative ways than just cleaning his gun and dismembering dead bodies. As his life and mind fall to pieces, Bruce comes closer and closer to having to answer the one question he keeps asking himself: 'Do I really want my conscience back?'
