AUGUST EVENING
A new country. A new life. A new love.
Directed by Chris Eska
:::ABOUT THE FILM:::
August Evening follows an aging undocumented farm worker named Jaime and his young, widowed daughter-in-law, Lupe, as their lives are thrown into upheaval. Lupe is more of a daughter to Jaime than his own children, and the two try to stick together… but change is inevitable...
:::REVIEWS:::
"A deeply absorbing viewing experience."
- Scott Foundas, L.A. WEEKLY
"Perfectly honed, naturalistic acting and visual lyricism."
- Stephen Farber, THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
"In moments where tumultuous thoughts and feelings hang heavy in the silent air, Eska captures both the uneasiness of immigrant (and, more generally, unmoored) life, as well as the hard-won joy of love and renewal." - Nick Schager, SLANT MAGAZINE
