James White

About the movie

James White is a troubled twentysomething trying to stay afloat in a frenzied New York City. As he retreats further into a hedonistic lifestyle, his mother’s battle with a serious illness faces a series of setbacks that force him to assume more responsibility. With the pressure on him mounting, James must find new reserves of strength or risk imploding completely.
Winner of Sundance Audience Award, and met with wide critical acclaim, Josh Mond is to leave no one untouched by his directorial debut James White, and its bruising portrait of self-destruction. Starring Christopher Abbott (A Most Violent Year, Girls), Ron Livingston (Office Space, The Conjuring) and Cynthia Nixon (Sex & the City).
