Synopsis

DOWN IN THE VALLEY stars Edward Norton (FIGHT CLUB, PRIMAL FEAR) and Evan Rachel Wood (THIRTEEN) in a suspenseful crime story set at the edge of the San Fernando Valley - a seedy place of horse ranches and immigrant gangs, where ten-lane freeways converge to create a cultural no man's land.

A rebellious high school senior Tobe (Evan Rachel Wood) and her anemic 11 year-old brother Lonnie (Rory Culkin) struggle to escape their grim and hopeless existence and their overbearing father, Wade (David Morse). Their hoped-for deliverance comes in the form of Harlan, a charming, yet mercurial man (Edward Norton) who thinks he's a cowboy.

With an exceptional supporting cast; David Morse (THE GREEN MILE, DANCER IN THE DARK), Bruce Dern (COMING HOME, MONSTER) and the young Rory Culkin (SIGNS and upcoming THE NIGHT LISTENER).
