Monday Nights at Seven

This raw cinematic poem about life and love captures the complicated emotions of people searching for meaning in a messy world. Lazo (Marty Sader) is a widowed single dad trapped in the safety of the daily grind. His life's dream of becoming a fighter long surrendered, he spends his days driving a cab, raising his precocious daughter and clinging to the past. Isabel (Vanessa Cure) works with horses at a local racetrack and puts family obligations ahead of personal happiness. When fate thrusts them together, they begin a journey of mutual self-discovery, passionate encounters, and cultural breakthroughs. (Mill Valley Film Festival)
