Hangin' with the Homeboys
Directed by Joseph B. Vasquez
Produced by New Line Cinema, Juno Pix
A warm, character-driven comedy about four young men from different backgrounds discovering friendship and mutual respect over a single night in New York City.
Two African-Americans and two Puerto-Ricans (though one pretends to be Italian) go out on the town on a Friday night. They will be forced to get to know each other — and even worse, learn to like each other as friends.
