It’s Christmas Eve in Tinseltown and Sin-Dee (newcomer Kitana Kiki Rodriguez) is back on the block. Upon hearing that her pimp boyfriend (James Ransone, STARLET, “Generation Kill”) hasn’t been faithful during the 28 days she was locked up, the working girl and her best friend, Alexandra (newcomer Mya Taylor), embark on a mission to get to the bottom of the scandalous rumor. Their rip-roaring odyssey leads them through various subcultures of Los Angeles, including an Armenian family dealing with their own repercussions of infidelity.

“This is sublime filmmaking, a textbook example of how indies can tell groundbreaking stories in a way that Hollywood simply can’t match.” -David Lewis, San Francisco Chronicle

“Shot on an iPhone 5 for practically no money, Tangerine jumps off the screen and wows you like nobody’s business.” -Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

“It’s the warmth and absence of judgment or condescension toward its marginalized characters that make Sean Baker’s film such a vibrant and uplifting snapshot.” -David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter
