Film description
If Martin Scorsese was the auteur that pictured the transformation of New York as no other did, back in the 1970s, and Spike Lee did the same thing in the 90s, Ira Sachs is arguably the quintessential auteur of today’s New York, deconstructing the city and showing how this is reflected in the lives of its families. In this film, the main character is Jake, a quiet, sensitive middle-schooler with dreams of being an artist. He meets the affably brash Tony at his grandfather’s funeral, and the unlikely pair soon hit it off. The budding friendship is put at risk, however, when a rent dispute between Jake’s parents, Brian and Kathy, and Tony’s mother, Leonor, threatens to become contentious.
