MEDICINE FOR MELANCHOLY, A film by Barry Jenkins, NR, 87min
Medicine For Melancholy is a love story about a one-night stand told through two African-American twenty-somethings dealing with issues of class, identity, and the evolving conundrum of being a minority in a rapidly gentrifying San Francisco a city with the smallest black population of any other major American city. When Micah and Jo stumble into the brightness of a sunny San Francisco day after a hook-up, Jo cant wait to escape the uncomfortable silence, but a shared cab ride and a lost wallet soon bring a well intentioned Micah to her front door. As caution turns to curiosity, the young couple sets off on a romantic ramble through eclectic neighborhoods and their own lives as they swap views on everything from the meaning of blackness to the letting go of heartbreak.
