Jess + Moss Page #4

Synopsis: Jess (18) and Moss (12) are second cousins who have spent their summers together since either of them can remember. Without immediate families that they can relate to, and lacking friends their own age, all they have is each other. Through a series of memories and vignettes, 'Jess + Moss' recounts the events of the last summer they shared together. Shot entirely on location with a variety of expired and often degraded film stocks, 'Jess + Moss' captures the evocative and haunting character of the dark fire tobacco fields of rural Western Kentucky.

Sit down.

I'm not gonna shoot your stupid jars.

They're not stupid.

Okay, I got the guy on the far left.

Okay, I got the far right.

- Right in the eyeball.

- Smoked em'.

I got middle.

That's the one I was going for.

Too bad.

Jess, what are you aiming at?

The one on the far left.

No you're not. You know you're not.

Jess, stop it!

Jess!

I told you not to shoot my jars.

Jess, I told you not to shoot my jars.

Jess, stop it!

Jess, stop it.

Moss, don't point that gun at me.

Don't shoot my jars.

What'd I tell you about

pointing that gun at me?

What'd I tell you about

shooting my jars, huh?

Come on.

Lick my elbow.

Come on, Moss.

Lick my elbow.

All you gotta do

is lick the elbow.

Come on.

You know this is-

You lick my elbow.

Come on.

Come on!

- You asked for it you little sh*t.

- B*tch!

Retard!

And then,

one night,

they were driving down to see

my parents.

And it was storming really, really bad.

But you know what, Moss?

It was storming really, really bad.

It was very sad.

It was sad for everybody.

One night

they were driving down to see

my parents.

And it was storming really, really, bad.

And they got into a car wreck.

And they died.

So you're going to put your hand here.

And you're going to put

your hand on my shoulder.

And were gonna go left

right

back

and right

back

right

back

left

and left.

Aren't we supposed to dance closer?

Are you scared of girls?

No.

What's the furthest

you've gone with a girl?

I've kissed one before.

Who Haley?

No.

Haley's your girlfriend isn't she?

No. She's not.

She so is.

No.

She's kind of cute isn't she?

No.

Do you have her picture under your pillow?

No, I do not.

Yeah right.

Do you wanna go check my pillow?

Hey Jess, what's a dildo?

What's so funny?

Nothing.

It's not a gun. It's just some like-

little plastic crap.

- What is it?

- You're too young.

- No I'm not.

- You're way too young.

No I'm not!

Let it go Moss.

Okay, now seriously. What is it?

Here, whisper it in my ear.

It's- A dildo is a substitute for a penis.

What's so funny?

Jesus Christ, Moss.

Hey, what fireworks do we have left?

Not much.

Like, what do we have?

Like, a couple of Porta Rockets.

Mortars?

Nope.

I wish we could have a huge fireworks show.

That would be pretty awesome, wouldn't it.

Do you think we could buy some mortars?

My favourite thing.

Yeah, If I save up my allowance.

I think we could be able to buy some.

Fireworks are probably the coolest

thing in the whole world.

Can't stop shivering.

It's cause your sh*t's all wet.

Promise not to look?

I promise.

We should get closer

together for body warmth.

Okay.

You looked, you little pervert.
