Klepto is a 2003 straight-to-DVD independent thriller film starring Meredith Bishop and Jsu Garcia.[2] It is the debut film of director Thomas Trail and premiered at the 2003 CineVegas Film Festival.[1]

Plot

In Los Angeles, Emily Brown is a kleptomaniac who is addicted to pills and misses her jailed father, and is undergoing therapy trying to resolve her compulsion. She has a police record for shoplifting, and her mother Teresa is a compulsive shopper whose spending has ruined her financially. The security guard Nick, of Bernstein's department store, sees Emily through a camera and becomes fascinated with her. She resists his advances, which are tinged with blackmail, but her mother approves. When Nick, a couch-surfing divorcee, gets in trouble dealing ecstasy, he presses Emily to help him rob Bernstein's.[2] She resents being coerced into a carefully planned crime and finds a way of both thwarting his plans and bailing-out her mother.

Cast

Preston Jones, of DVD Talk praised "a pair of winning performances" in a screenplay which "draws you in close for a subtly surprising finale".[2]
