| Summary |
Jimmie Fails dreams of reclaiming the Victorian home his grandfather built in the heart of San Francisco. Joined on his quest by his best friend Mont, Jimmie searches for belonging in a rapidly changing city that seems to have left them behind. As he struggles to reconnect with his family and reconstruct the community he longs for, his hopes blind him to the reality of his situation. A wistful odyssey populated by skaters, squatters, street preachers, playwrights, and the other locals on the margins, The Last Black Man in San Francisco is a poignant and sweeping story of friendship, community, and the true meaning of home. Joe Talbot's directorial debut is a deep and resonant meditation on the stories we tell ourselves to find our place in the world. Official Selection at the **Sundance Film Festival**, and **BFI London Film Festival**. *"Flanked by a gorgeous orchestral score, filled with quirky humour and filmed with an incredible eye for faces and places, it's an appealingly tender effort that still has real dramatic heft and grandeur." - Emma Simmonds, **Radio Times*** |
