Two Ugly People

It could be love, it could be love

Directed by Peter Skinner

FilmDrops says

Two strangers meet by chance in a highway-side motel but as their stay goes on, we begin to wonder if their meeting was by chance at all.

TWO UGLY PEOPLE submerges us in the thrilling yet heart-wrenching love story of two “strangers” who meet at a highway-side motel. Through a raw, emotional cinematic character study reminiscent of Coppola’s Lost in Translation, Hitchcock’s Vertigo, and Wong Kar-wai’s In the Mood for Love, the film reveals a tangled mystery of desire, guilt, and grief.

Official Selection 2026 Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
