OverView

Mischievous and introspective in turns, Anna Pollack’s lo-fi travelogue shot while visiting family in Jamaica showcases the distinctive camerawork and playful editing style of an emerging talent in NYC independent film. Loosely divided into four vignettes, its many standout moments include an encounter with an absurd would-be rasta and a charming game of celebrity hot-or-not.
