Red Rocket is a provocative indie drama that showcases director Sean Baker’s unflinching eye for American subcultures. The film follows Mikey Saber, a washed-up adult film star brilliantly portrayed by Simon Rex, who returns to his small Texas hometown after his career implodes in Los Angeles.
Desperate and penniless, Mikey moves back in with his estranged wife Lexi and her mother, attempting to rebuild his life in the economically depressed refinery town of Texas City. However, his manipulative nature and grandiose schemes quickly create chaos as he becomes obsessed with Strawberry, a young donut shop employee he believes could be his ticket back to fame.
Shot on 16mm film with a blend of professional and non-professional actors, Baker creates an authentic portrait of working-class America. The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival to critical acclaim, with Rex earning widespread praise for his fearless, career-defining performance in this darkly comedic character study.
