MVFF at Home: The Outside Story

Frustrated, listless, and heartbroken after breaking up with his girlfriend, introverted video editor Charles (Brian Tyree Henry) is also struggling to meet a deadline. When a food delivery goes awry, he experiences every New Yorker’s worst nightmare: getting locked out of their apartment. With no shoes, no wallet, a phone low on battery power, and the stars aligned to keep him physically separated from his comfort zone, he runs into a cavalcade of eccentric Brooklynites, including a swinging upstairs neighbor, a strict parking enforcement officer, the kindly widow next door, and a budding piano prodigy. Throughout these encounters he reevaluates his life and the recent end to his relationship.
