CURB APPEAL work-in-progress screening

at IFP Market 2001, Angelika Film Center, NYC Tuesday October 2, 1:30 pm, Theatre 5.

Using documentary and fictional elements, Curb Appeal (76 minutes) unfolds in a series of unsettling and poignant vignettes centered on 5 characters who piece together lives in Baltimore, MD. An African-American man sifts through his father's suburban home looking for keys to a seemingly opaque life. A recent college grad drinks beer on rooftops and wanders the blighted cityscape as he considers a move to California. Three single mothers struggle to keep their dreams alive in the face of oppressive extended family dynamics. In a blend of direct address, interviews and dramatic scenes, Curb Appeal meditates on displacement and isolation in the modern landscape.
