Here’s the first clip to director Raafi Rivero’s coming-of-age story 72 Hours: A Brooklyn Love Story, which will have its World Premiere at the 2016 Los Angeles Film Festival.
Starring Melvin Mogoli, Erinn Westbrook, Andrea-Rachel Parker, Bilal Ngondo, and Roshanna Paul, and based on a Reel Works short film, 7HOURS follows a weekend in the life of a charismatic crew-leader Caesar as he prepares to leave for college and must come to grips with old and new relationships.
Restless and ambitious, 18 year-old Caesar Winslow is the leader of his crew, with swagger for days. But 72 hours before he leaves for a prestigious university, his confidence shatters. His girlfriend breaks up with him and the “woman of his dreams” won’t give him the time of day. His friends leave his corner and even the streets seem ready to sock him in the jaw. What will he do? “72 Hours: a Brooklyn Love Story?” takes the audience through a rapidly-gentrifying borough as Caesar and his friends spend three days rambling up and down its parkways in search of the perfect ending.
