URBANITES
Urbanites is the heartwarming and funny story of one significant day in Jess Hoffman’s life. Jess is a modern young mother on the cusp of change, bidding farewell to New York City while anticipating the birth of her second child. In a love letter film to the melting pot of the NYC experience, Jess spends the day before her Upper West Side apartment is sold on an unintentional tour through her physical, emotional, and spiritual life in New York City. Encountering the people and places that exemplify the NY experience, while managing her own precarious pregnancy, Jess spends 24 hours coming to the conclusion that there truly is, “No Place Like Home.”
Based on Sandy's award-winning short play, Fireworks, Urbanites is a film in development with award winning director, Jason Chaet. It is a love note to New York City, told from the perspective of one Upper West Side couple, on one unexpected day and is currently available for option via A3 Artists Agency.
