TALKING PIECE: a short film by Kristin Page Stuart


Jason is a well educated Midwestern transplant to Brooklyn who has set his sight on a careerin public education. His wife, Julia, is climbing up the corporate ladder and is the main bread winner of the family. Sam and Hugo are two ethnic teens who have grown up in the cross fires of Brooklyn’s rapid and aggressive gentrification, of which Jason and Julia are a part. When they lock heads with Jason about some troubles they are having outside of school, a firestorm of stereotype and assumptions explodes with both humor and gravity.

Shooting in July
