- White Boy
Hip, urban drama with a timely Latino twist! What happens when a mild-mannered Missouri boy falls head over heels in love with a surly Chicano gang-banger from East Los Angeles? The possibilities may surprise you in this colorful romantic comedy. Peppered with hot dance breaks and featuring a supporting cast of compelling Hispanic characters, “White Boy” dramatizes the lives and dreams of a diverse group of young men from Mexico to Puerto Rico, and beyond. All woven into a tender love story that explores race, religion, music, machismo, and the tricky politics of cross-cultural desire. Gay Pride meets Brown Pride in “White Boy,” a sexy hip-hop fable that the Los Angeles Times calls “funny, wrenching, and ultimately uplifting.”
