DESCRIPTION

James White is a twenty something striving to make ends meet in the crazy New York city. He escapes into a self-destructive, hedonistic lifestyle, but when finds out that his mother is seriously ill, he is forced to get a grip on himself. Constrained by the new situation, James must delve his inner resources to find the necessary strength or risk losing a connection with the one that gave him life. In this brave directorial debut, Josh Mond presents his subtle vision of the sense of loss and the relationship between the mother and son.
