Plot
Emerging from the wilderness, a tormented writer, scarred by his girlfriend's suicide and a barrage of publisher's critiques, plunges back into the blazing heart of Hollywood. He's completed his novel, but the city's sweltering heatwave mirrors his own restlessness. Amidst the seclusion of a L.A. suburb, he becomes intoxicated by the toxic waltz of his new neighbors—an alluring actress, struggling to stay afloat in the tumultuous waters of her career, and her domineering partner.
In the shadowy corners of his psyche, the writer's fascination spirals into a dangerous obsession. Drawn into their volatile world, he interjects himself, setting off a chain of events that blurs the line between reality and the pages of his next novel. An intense, erotically-charged bond forms between the writer and the actress, their connection as stifling as the L.A. sun.
Yet, darkness lurks beneath the surface of their relationship. The writer's jealousy, wild as an untamed beast, and the actress's unrelenting ambition, create a dangerously combustible mix. Their increasingly violent interactions provide the ink for his new book, but at what cost? The Cool Surface is a simmering exploration of passion and madness, where love and art dance on the razor's edge of destruction.
