Details

• Release Year: 2006
• Genre: Drama
• Plot: A coming-of-age drama about writer/director Dito Montiel's youth, the film captures the mid-1980s in the toughest neighborhood of Astoria, Queens. Dito (Robert Downey Jr.), called home after 15 years because his father (Chazz Palmintieri) is ill, encounters old friends - the ones he lost, the ones he left behind, the ones he can't help but remember. These are Dito's 'saints.' An honest account of a bittersweet return to a neighborhood where relationships can never be what they once were, Dito's story is about coming to terms with a father's rage and a father's love.
