Synopsis

HAPPY IN THE VALLEY is an original, provocative dark comedy set deep in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley, starring William Forsythe as Stewart Fox, a formerly famous rock and roll photographer, who has been relegated to shooting explicit erotic portraits of women in his home studio after years of alcohol and drug abuse. To reinvigorate his career, Stew hires a struggling art school student, Wade Ward (Shaun Sipos), to take pictures of him at work for his self published biography “The World’s Greatest Erotic Photographer, Ever!” HAPPY IN THE VALLEY chronicles the decline and redemption of an intriguing cast of characters as they fight their demons.
