Starring Tomas Milian and Manny Perez 'Washington Heights' is a low budget drama set in a Latino neighborhood in NYC.
A young comic-book artist (Manny Perez) wants to escape his Latino neighborhood. When his father is crippled by a robber's gunshot, the young man is forced to run the family bodega.
The movie was shot in a budget (low resolution video and poor audio) with low profile actors.
The plot flowed well for 85 minutes but the last 5 minutes were just terrible. We don't know for sure if Perez and his girlfriend remained together and if Angel ended-up in jail for the shooting.
