| Directed by first time filmmaker Eric Eason, Manito is a riveting story of two brothers set against the volatiIe backdrop of a changing inner city. Shot in cinema verité style, Manito reflects a community when it transformed from drugs and vioIence to one of the most vibrant Spanish-speaking communities in the U.S. Although the dealers were disappearing their violent legacy remained casting a shadow over the neighborhood and its residents. Junior Moreno (Franky G.), an ex-convict struggling to get his Iife back, is a product of that Iegacy. His brother Manny, (Leo Minaya) the saIutatorian of his high school class, embodies hope in the neighborhood. On the night of his graduation party, Manny faces an iIl-fated decision that could change his life forever, whiIe Junior tries to prevent his little brother from becoming another casualty. With gritty, Iuminescent cinematography and unfIinching portrayaIs of characters that embody the heart and souI of the neighborhood, writer/director Eric Eason brings us an electrifying feature debut in the finest tradition of independent filmmaking. |
