Crazy Beats Strong Every Time (Moon Molson | New Jersey | 26 min.)
Returning to the New Jersey projects with a crew of his friends, Markees, an African-American twenty-something, finds his stepfather passed out drunk in his building hallway. Motivated by shame and the restraining order his mother has placed on his stepfather, Markees drags the unconscious man into his car in order to find him a more suitable place to sleep. But as tensions build and frustrations mount, can Markees reject the pressures of urban machismo and his own youthful pride before someone actually gets hurt? Supported by the Rooftop Filmmakers’ Fund.
