Common Senses
Directed by Alexander Rojas, Daniel J. Pico, Mary Filice, MT Cozzola and Dennis Belogorsky
“ Impressive Performances! Luis A. Perez is remarkable!” -Indymedia.org

“Holly Montgomery-Webb gives a powerful breakthrough performance.” -Chicago Filmmakers
An embarrassment to her family and shunned by her
friends, kleptomaniac Erin struggles to put her life in order
after her release from prison. She finds companionship in
a childhood acquaintance named Luis, who now works as
a hustler on the streets of Chicago, but their burgeoning
friendship is strained when a child they befriend goes
missing, forcing them to confront their issues of trust, responsibility
and atonement. Told through five chapters by
five award-winning Chicago filmmakers, Common Senses
emerges as an engrossing examination of urban humanity. In the tradition of New York Stories.
