Medicine for Melancholy, the debut film from writer-director Barry Jenkins, takes a dreamy contemplative look at a young African American couple in San Francisco. It's a black art film when art films are in trouble.
Having enjoyed great success on the film-festival circuit, Medicine for Melancholy is now in release in select cities.
