AUSTRALIA – Actor Maxwell Caulfield portrays the character (Rob Turner) who finds himself in this gritty and confronting Gay short film that taps into workplace discrimination and the turmoil caused when a middle-class family’s values and beliefs are interrupted by nature.
Caulfield delivers a fantastic performance and it is no wonder that he is nominated for Best Actor at the 2016 Eastern NC Film Festival for his performance in “The Tormentors” (2016)
