Money, Money, Money. The root of all evil but also makes the world go round. Struggling for money seems to be a universal theme these days and it really hits home in these films from around the world.


A down-on-his-luck musician returns home on the day of his younger brother’s movie premiere to steal his computer and sell it to the paparazzi.


Alden Ehrenreich's directorial debut is a layered family drama revolving around celebrity and sibling rivalry. By subverting expectations and casting Ehrenreich in the non-celebrity role, the film succeeds in adding levels of empathy to all members of a family.


SHADOW BROTHER SUNDAY will be screened as a part of the SHORTS: CASH RULES EVERYTHING AROUND ME package.


Producer Natalie Metzger will be in attendance at the September 23 screening.
