The Los Angeles Film Festival will have the world premiere of "11:55," written by Ari Issler, Ben Snyder and Victor Almanzar, on June 5, 6:10PM at the ArcLight Culver City 4.
"11:55" starring Victor Almanzar, Shirley Rumierk, Elizabeth Rodriguez, David Zayas,
John Leguizamo and Julia Stiles will have a public screening on June 7, 3:55 p.m. at the Arclight Culver City 8.
After being involved in the fatal shooting of a local drug dealer, U.S. Marine Nelson Sanchez (Victor Almanzar, "Empire," "High Maintenance") returns to the neighborhood he fled years ago.
Amid the fanfare and celebration, the brother of the deceased learns of Nelson’s homecoming and vows revenge.
Word reaches Nelson but instead of fleeing, he charts an unlikely path to break the cycle of violence that defined him.
Co-directors Ari Issler and Ben Snyder retool the classic film HIGH NOON with influence from Almanzar's own latino roots to create a dazzling emotional impact in their feature directorial debut.
With a persistent, clock-ticking intensity throughout, the tension remains as high as the stakes.
Brimming with excellent performances, 11:55 is a gripping and poignant tale of reconciliation and forgiveness.
