Description
Barry Jenkins’ feature film is a love story of bikes and one-night stands told through two African-American twenty-somethings dealing with issues of class, identity and the evolving conundrum of being a minority in rapidly gentrifying San Francisco – the city with the smallest proportional black population of any major American city.
Director Barry Jenkins joins San Francisco Film Society Director Graham Leggat for an evening of provocative conversation following the film.
Medicine for Melancholy stars Wyatt Cenac (The Daily Show with Jon Stewart) and Tracey Heggins (Fashion House).
