But when they accidentally destroy a cursed VHS\, suddenly all their lives are in danger\, and—worse yet—the commercial may never get finished." \nLiving on his own for the first time\, Manhattan college freshman Luke (Miles Robbins) is struggling to deal with his studies and artistic aspirations while caring for his mentally ill mother (Mary Stuart Masterson). As it all threatens to become too much for him\, the reemergence of Luke's childhood imaginary friend Daniel (Patrick Schwarzenegger) appears to be the answer to all his troubles. \nDaniel is everything Luke isn't: confident\, effortlessly charming and charismatic. But as Daniel begins to assert himself into Luke's life in increasingly unsettling and dangerous ways\, the stage is suddenly set for an all-out battle for Luke's very soul.

When roads are closed due to a protest of police brutality\, a new route delays his scheduled clients\, particularly Tracy (social media star and physically disabled lifestyle influencer Lauren "Lolo" Spencer in a stunning debut)\, a vibrant young woman with ALS. As the day goes from hectic to off-the-rails\, their collective ride becomes a hilarious\, compassionate\, and intersectional portrait of American dreams and disenchantment. The distributor\, Music Box Films\, made one 35mm print for this release. Come see this film the way you won't be able to see it anywhere else! \n [source: George Eastman Museum website\, 2019-Nov-4] URL:https://jayceland.com/blog/event/give-me-liberty-screening/ LOCATION:Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House)\, 900 East Ave.\, Rochester\, New York\, 14607\, United States CATEGORIES:JayceLand 2019-Nov-7 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
