"[PICK OF THE WEEK!] An experimental tone poem of a feature, which moves to the dreamy, meandering rhythm of summertime itself... Even if you don't come from a rural backdrop like this one, Jeter and his collaborators nonetheless create a mood in which you have the time and space to reflect upon your own childhood, wherever and whenever that may have been. Like an unearthed lunchbox stuffed with trinkets and photographs, JESS + MOSS is a tiny backyard treasure."
- Michael Tully, FILMMAKER MAGAZINE (Feb. 16, 2012 -- read here)
"A beguilingly languid collection of sense impressions... achingly sad and surpassingly lovely!"
- Ben Mercer, THE VILLAGE VOICE (Feb. 15, 2012 -- read here)
"The director employs a careful attention to visual detail throughout the film... reminiscent of Terrence Malick in the '70s [and] Andrei Tarkovsky's STALKER. These are lofty comparisons for a filmmaker with only a handful of short films to his name, but nevertheless appropriate in a film that shows brief flashes of great potential... An exciting new talent!"
- Daniel Loria, THE L MAGAZINE (Feb. 15, 2012 -- read here)
"The visual magic of JESS + MOSS could give it a second life in museums. Bravura cinematography transforms the meandering tale of everyday boredom into a vivid collage of childhood and nature..."
- David D'Arcy, SCREEN DAILY
"Shot on about thirty different 16mm film stocks — some as much as a quarter-century old — the result managed to transcend mere gimmickry, becoming instead a mosaic of pieces that combined to form a quietly shattering whole. By the end, tears were rolling down my cheeks, and my throat was dry."
- Shane Danielsen, INDIEWIRE

JESS + MOSS is a mesmerizing tale of vulnerable youth and "a bracing jolt from the usual film experience" (The Hollywood Reporter). Winner of the Best Narrative at the Dallas Film Festival, director Clay Jeter's treasure of Sundance, Berlin, Hong Kong and Athens makes its NYC theatrical premiere with a week-long run, February 17 - 23.
18-year-old Jess (Sarah Hagan, "FREAKS AND GEEKS") and 12-year-old Moss (Austin Vickers) are second cousins in the dark-fire tobacco fields of rural Western Kentucky. Without immediate families they can relate to, and lacking friends their own age, they only have each other. Over the course of a leisurely summer, they venture on a journey exploring deep secrets while confronting their fears of isolation, abandonment and an unknown tomorrow.
In an impressionistic series of memories and vignettes, Jeter creates a haunting world for his two solitary, playful souls. JESS + MOSS delicately assembles new ways of looking and listening: different planes of focus, select pieces of music, and expert sound engineering that calls attention to cryptic but suggestive details.
82 minutes. In English. Presented in Blu-ray. Unrated. A Baxter Brothers/Cinemad Presents release.
