Modern-day culture mash-up in Queens.
 
 
Sure to be a Festival favorite!!! A classic working-class American tale with unforgettable performances, this rare gem explores the surprising bond between a hard-working illegal immigrant and a blue-collar Italian American from Queens. Wrestling with language barriers and racial prejudices, the two grow closer as their worlds expand. The spector of permanent deportation hangs over this unusual buddy film. Lovely, funny, and ultimately heartbreaking.
