"Extraction USA." The actor direction, cinematography, and performances by the actresses (and actors) were outstanding.

My wife and I loved this movie !

I highly recommend watching this film. The plot is well-crafted, the intrigue and resolution are worthy of the best-known thrillers!

This film will become a landmark in American independent cinema, directed with imagination and efficiency, and it deserves a place in the top festivals around the world.

A film to watch over and over again because it is so entertaining. Don't forget to make some popcorn and let yourself be carried away by its effective plot.

You can't help feeling empathy for Marni a single mom trying to raise her reclusive teenage son. It's not before Marni meets Steph, a bird of passage and fellow pool hustler, who instantly wins Marni over, that she can envision a way out of the dead-end oil town.

Writers Peter Matsoukas and Mike Yonts delicately weave the subplot of the queer relationship subplot, which rapidly develops between Marni and Steph into their multifarious script rather than turn the spotlight onto it. It's written to feel conventional to the point that Marni's son never questions their budding love. Instead, we watch their romance, new terrain for Marni, evolve by paralleling their ambitions to find a way out Extraction

Yonts' gritty and vigorous soundtrack flows throughout most of the film much like the crude under the town's grounds. It transpits the synergy created on screen by our duo in the throes of love. A great watch!

So this story is about a single mom in a town that is blue collar but dominated in that industry and everyone else has to fight for the scraps of the economy, making it a class division and building animosity amongst the community members. Through circumstances and scraping by, like pool hustling and whatever she can do to gain a financial edge, Marni, the protagonist, lean further and further into increasing risky criminal acts that can gain financial freedom. She meets a free spirit independent woman who increases these tendencies in her personal life that leads to even higher riskier capers. Fun film with a surprising ending.
