Coming of Age

Synopsis:
Manuel grew up in socially disadvantaged circumstances with his single mother. On his biological father's 51st birthday, Manuel breaks into his penthouse apartment. He is to atone for the harm he has done to him and his mother. A heated argument breaks out, but eventually a door opens up: Blackness and masculinity play as much a role as overcoming intergenerational trauma. [CW: Physical Violence]
