About this film
Tom Bell (Finn Wittrock) was responsible for a tragic accident in his youth; something that ruined his closest friends' lives. Now, years later, Tom is forced to return to his hometown and finally face the people he wronged and a town that views him as a pariah. After being asked to screen his debut film, “Westhampton,” a semi-autobiographical film about a car crash with devastating consequences, he realizes the demons he’s holding onto are his own. For the first time, Tom is returning to the real Westhampton. Westhampton is an incredibly personal, coming-of-age drama that explores the phrase “you can’t go home again” while simultaneously expoloring deeper questions about forgiveness and forgiving yourself.
