“ROGERS PARK is poetic and lovely and muscular and unforgiving at the same time, much like the area itself and the city as a whole.” – Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times

“An ideal showcase for the four leads, who are given the latitude to create fully human characters.” – Scott Tobias, Variety

Celebrated independent filmmaker Kyle Henry is interested in characters and stories that often don’t make it to the center of our screens. For his latest film, a drama about mid-life relationships in his diverse Chicago neighborhood of Rogers Park, Henry held a race and gender-blind casting call, and developed the story in a collaborative workshop with his actors.

Director Kyle Henry, writer Carlos Treviño, and actor Jonny Mars in attendance at select shows! See full schedule of appearances below.
