Description
Mining the emotional sense memories of their fractured childhoods, Josh and Benny Safdie craft a by turns empathetic and disquieting portrait of parental dysfunction poised between fierce love and terrifying irresponsibility. Manic Manhattan movie theater projectionist Lenny is perhaps the last person who should be raising kids, yet here he is, trying (and failing) to keep it together as his life unravels over the two whirlwind weeks that he has custody of his young boys (real-life brothers Sage and Frey Ranaldo), with an impromptu road trip, a sleeping-pill mishap, and a night in jail all part of the chaos. Vřit ̌New York naturalism gives way to flights of surreal lyricism, a blearily impressionistic anti-fairy tale that finds unexpected humanity in the seemingly most irredeemable of fathers.
