Directed by Andrew Peyton

An obsessive admits to stalking, doesn't think it's a big deal, and starts a support group for it. The film traces his compulsion back to childhood through a deeply suspect therapeutic format.

The scouts

A support group for stalkers, played straight enough that the laugh catches in your throat. Whoever greenlit this in 2014 deserves a medal and a restraining order.

Page didn't load past Cloudflare, but a deadpan group-therapy comedy about stalking that refuses to moralize is high-degree-of-difficulty Solondz territory — going on description alone here.
