About

A deeply religious black ex-con thwarts the suicide attempt of an asocial white college professor who tries to throw himself in front of an oncoming subway train, 'The Sunset Limited.' As the one attempts to connect on a rational, spiritual and emotional level, the other remains steadfast in his hard-earned despair. Locked in a philosophical debate, both passionately defend their personal credos and try to convert the other.
Two men sit trapped within the confines of a cramped apartment, locked in a fierce intellectual battle over the existence of God and the value of life. This claustrophobic dialogue crackles with enough friction to ignite the room.
