Also written, produced, and directed by Alan Ball, and featured an acting performance by Peter Macdissi. In the motel scene in this film, when Wally (portrayed by Macdisssi), a character of Saudi Arabian heritage comes out of the bathroom after taking a shower in their motel room, he wraps and ties a towel around his head.
