Event
Putty Hill
Seattle Theatrical Premiere!
After a young man overdoses on heroin in a poor, working-class suburb of Baltimore, his family and friends gather on the eve of his funeral to commemorate his life. Their shared memories paint a portrait of a community hanging in the balance, skewed by poverty and a generational divide, but united in their pursuit of a new American Dream. Gifted young filmmaker Matthew Porterfield (Hamilton) casts non-actors, utilizes improvised dialogue and skirts documentary techniques to generate an awe-inspiring realism that is remarkable for its candid emotional honesty.
"A deeply felt evocation of a place and a people." New York Post
