With a local Austin cast and crew, TWO STEP, directed by Alex R. Johnson starring Beth Broderick, and up and comers Skyy Moore (Cry) and James Landry Hebert (Gangster Squad, Seven Psychopaths, Looper), features the original score by Austin resident Andrew Kenny as well as local music fixtures such as Jesse Dayton, Dale Watson, and Laurie Gallardo. Kenny has a cult following from his 90's band "American Analog Set" and has moved into film scores with this fast-paced, deeply personal, suspenseful and bloody thriller, TWO STEP.

This film truly showcases local Austin and its great music scene to the fullest with a superb score.

Synopsis: Kicked out of college, James visits Grams, his only remaining family, who dies shortly after his arrival. He finds consolation in the company of Grams' neighbor, Dot, a dance teacher, as he figures out his next move. While settling Grams' affairs, James learns she's been the victim of the "grandparent scam" in which someone posing as James has been slowly bilking her out of thousands. But before James can go looking for the culprit, he shows up at the front door, desperate for money. The culprit, Webb, has his own problems in the form of Duane, who has ordered Webb to pay an old debt or else. And if Webb can't get it from Grams, James will have to do - no matter who stands in his way.
