Through Razmik and his family, the filmmakers explore the costs of the lives all of their characters are leading without ever passing judgment on them. And, in Rodriguez's hands, we also get a peek inside the hurt and need Sin-Dee tries so hard to hide we can love her while never, ever wanting to cross her.īaker and Bergoch are just as humanely unsparing with Razmik (Karren Karagulian), a married Armenian cab driver who has a particular affection for - and, it seems, addiction to - the trans prostitutes he passes by every day on the job.

It takes almost no time at all for the movie to announce itself as one of the most vital films at Sundance this year.
