Michael Phillip Edwards, USA, 2005, 90 mins, color
Runt
is a strikingly passionate
story of a Jamaican-American man who is forced to confront the
ancestral demons of his past in order to be the man he wants
to be for his son. Christopher Davis, a writer, returns home
to Jamaica when he feels his “snap” coming on. A “snap” is what
his family describes as the moment the nice gentle Jamaican
man everyone knew, all but disappears to reveal the headstrong,
sexually deviant, macho prideful male that lives within. Through
flashbacks, we study a character that is complex and passionately
layered.
$5 members, students
+ seniors; $7 general admission.
Available at
and 1/2 hour before showtime at the Box Office.
