Film Independent Members, you and a guest are invited to watch Small Engine Repair in our Film Independent Presents Online Screening Room, powered by Vision Media. A special pre-recorded conversation with writer/director/actor John Pollono, and actors Shea Whigham and Jon Bernthal, moderated by Matt Warren (Senior Manager, Digital Content, Film Independent), is included as part of this screening experience.

Frankie (John Pollono), Swaino (Jon Bernthal) and Packie (Shea Whigham) are lifelong friends who share a love of the Red Sox, rowdy bars and Frankie’s teenage daughter Crystal (Ciara Bravo). But when Frankie invites his pals to a whiskey-fueled evening and asks them to do a favor on behalf of the brash young woman they all adore, events spin wildly out of control. Based on Pollono’s award-winning play, Small Engine Repair is a pitch-black comedic drama with a wicked twist and a powerful exploration of brotherhood, class struggle and modern masculinity.

From Vertical Entertainment, Small Engine Repair is now available on VOD.

 
2021, 103 minutes, color | Written and Directed by John Pollono | Starring Jon Bernthal, Shea Whigham, Jordana Spiro, John Pollono, Ciara Bravo, Spencer House | Produced by Rick Rosenthal, Peter Abrams, Jon Bernthal, Noah Rothman
