Synopsis
"Goodbye Solo" (2009), directed by Ramin Bahrani, is an American indie drama you can watch online on iFILM. Solo drives a cab through Winston-Salem. His newest regular is William — old, tight-lipped, and paying a thousand dollars for a one-way trip to Blowing Rock on October 20th, no pickup scheduled.
Solo is too perceptive to miss what that means. He does not call anyone. He starts dropping by, chatting, dragging the old man out to the movies. William wants to be left alone. Bahrani shot the film with non-professional actors on location in a near-documentary style; it screened in Un Certain Regard at Cannes. What stays with you is not the destination but the weeks leading there — two men with nothing in common and, somehow, a great deal at stake. Stream "Goodbye Solo" online on iFILM.
