written and directed by Lisa Ebersole
The rain is coming down, but inside a small East Village walk-up two women entertain the stranger they've brought home with late night birthday revelry, ripe with wild flirtations and booze fueled confessions. When a fourth enters the mix, their sexually charged celebration abruptly ends, with grisley consequences. Walking a fine line between intrigue and danger, BROTHER intersects race and class as it unveils four very real characters who are consumed by a very surreal situation. Sterotypes are projected, assumptions are tested and predictibility is led in a tango until the shocking finale
