The American dream has rarely seemed so far away as in this raw, vérité film from Sean Baker and Shih-Ching Tsou, an immersion in the life of an undocumented Chinese immigrant struggling to get by on the margins of post-9/11 New York City. Facing violent retaliation from a loan shark, a restaurant deliveryman races against time to pay back the money he owes over the course of a frantic day.
