ANGELIKA’S NOTE

Both heartfelt and heartwarming, this Sundance Film Festival award winner will touch your heart and soul with its intelligence, conversation, and wit. Starring Peter Dinklage (GAME OF THRONES, CYRANO), Patricia Clarkson (THE GREEN MILE, SHUTTER ISLAND), and Bobby Cannavale (ANT-MAN, BLUE JASMINE) as an unlikely trio brought together by fate - and New Jersey Transit - who help each other work through love, loss, and life, overall. The Denver Rocky Mountain News calls it "A small, smart movie that goes a long way toward making a lasting and tender impression."

SYNOPSIS

When his only friend and co-worker dies, a young man born with dwarfism moves to an abandoned train depot in rural New Jersey. Though he tried to maintain a life of solitude, he is soon entangled with an artist who is struggling with a personal tragedy and an overly friendly Cuban hot-dog vendor.
