Steve Barron, Director
Melding acute insight into the immigrant experience with visionary magical realism, Steve Barron serves up a parable set in New York's multi-ethnic Jamaica neighborhood. Octavio Gómez Berrios plays a near-mute dishwasher from Equador toiling at a shabby diner, while quietly pining for a radiant fellow immigrant (Eugenia Yuan). His inner world is revealed in surreal animated interludes featuring rabbits and diagrammatic figures from a Heimlich maneuver first-aid poster. Mandy Patinkin costars. "Thoroughly charming" — Salon.
