"Elliot Loves", written and directed by Terracino
Combining elements of fantasy and farce with domestic drama, "Elliot Loves" tells two seemingly disparate stories: that of nine-year-old Dominican-American Elliot Ayende and his emotionally on-the-edge, single mother; and, one summer in the life of Elliot, now 21-years-old and enduring a string of comically bad relationships. Both stories explore the universal need to be loved and understood. "Elliot Loves" is daring and new, yet ultimately embracing of the human condition and all its frailties. As Elliot himself teaches us, we can survive almost anything life throws at us, just "Keep it cute, Papi".
