Welcome to the dregs of Los Angeles, 2018. The Gorgon of Los Feliz is Cameron Kilbride, a bisexual female in her early twenties, newly evicted, hustling a living by rolling tourists on the fringe of Hollywood, stealing cars—anything to get by. Enter the affluent Stevensons; Richard and Mauve have lost track of their troubled daughter, Tiffany, and fear she has fallen back into pills, last seen on tour across America with a psychedelic rock band. Desperate to reel her back home, Richard employs Tiff’s social media mentor (Ms. Kilbride) to hit the road and search for her. With a one-way ticket to Las Vegas, Cam makes it her life’s mission to find Tiffany and bring her back to L.A. for a handsome reward. When she finds their daughter in the Mojave, things soon go haywire, forcing her to steal the girl’s identity to bilk her inheritance; however, once she procures this troubled life, the sordid characters in Tiff’s world begin to haunt her every step.
An unflinching look at the exploits of identity, The Gorgon of Los Feliz tackles the current American landscape of con artists at large in a world gone mad, picking up the torch left by Patricia Highsmith’s The Talented Mr. Ripley.
