| Brief Description: | Paskaljevic's tender, funny story of the failed American Dream stars
Tom Conti (Shirley Valentine) as the Spanish immigrant Alonso, who
lives with his blind mother above the dingy bar he owns in Brooklyn.
His comic counterpart is Bayo (Miki Monojlovic), an illegal immigrant
from Montenegro who toils away at odd jobs in pursuit of the American
dream. A rich ensemble piece, it is a heartwarming tale of loss,
displacement and, ultimately, the power of friendship. In English and
Serbo-Croatian with English subtitles. |
