Matthew Porterfield

World premiere! American independent filmmaker Matt Porterfield (Sollers Point) leaves his native Baltimore for a luminous Mexican sojourn featuring the rising star Barbara López. Get lost in this alluring chamber piece where words gracefully come to life and fill the edges of the screen.

Featuring the great pop star Sky Ferreira (!) in her acting debut (!!), this delicate portrait of disenchantment in a Baltimore suburb is told in a wandering form to give direct voice to the pulse and connection of a community. Putty Hill is remarkable distillation of a time, place, and feeling.
