Tim Blake Nelson Says His Son’s Directorial Debut ‘Seeped Into My Dna'

Asleep in My Palm is a quiet but commanding, funny, and heartbreaking indie film that may have flown under your radar when it was released March 1st, but now that it's available on digital platforms and on demand, you have a chance to rectify that. Tim Blake Nelson is phenomenal as a protective father living with his teenage daughter in a storage unit, hustling for money however he can; we see him up all night in the cold, stealing bicycles and transporting them one at a time to the pick-up location. It's a fascinating portrait of someone living off the grid, perhaps an unreliable narrator, and what it's like to be a parent in a hostile world.
