Meet the Filmmaker, via Skype: director Ira Sachs
Jake and Tony are two middle school boys from very different backgrounds whose paths cross in Brooklyn: Jake, is from an upscale family, and Tony, a working class Latino who is being raised mostly by his mother, Leonor. Leonor runs a dress shop in a building owned by Jakess late grandfather. When Jakes father Brian inherits the building, the pressure is on to raise the rent, threatening Leonor and Tonys stability. Despite the acrimony between the adults, the film is really the story of the burgeoning close friendship between Jake and Tony.
Sachs approach is so humane, and his characters so fully rendered, that an agenda never announces itself; instead, Sachs worldview seeps into you. Hes that skilled a film-maker. Nigel M. Smith, The Guardian
