Description

The 2018 winner of the Gold Coast International Film Festival’s Audience Award for Best Narrative Feature, “The Last Suit” returns for an encore screening on Wednesday, January 16, 2019, at 7:30 p.m. at the Bowtie Squire Cinemas, 115 Middle Neck Rd., Great Neck.

Argentine filmmaker Pablo Solarz’s bittersweet road movie, finds Jewish tailor Abraham Bursztein (Miguel Ángel Solá) being put out to pasture by his children, who’ve sold his Buenos Aires house and booked him into a retirement home. Refusing to bow to family pressure, he sets off on an adventure halfway around the world. Undeterred by travel mishaps and with help from a cast of kindly strangers along the way, the sharply-dressed suit maker travels by train across Europe to Poland, seeking out an old friend. Heartfelt and charming, with a wonderful comedic flavor, The Last Suit reminds us of the importance of family, friendship, and keeping your word.

In addition to receiving top honors at the 2018 Gold Coast International Film Festival, “The Last Suit” has garnered numerous awards including the Santa Barbara Film Festival Nueva Vision Award for Spain/Latin America Cinema; Audience Awards at the Atlanta Jewish Film Festival, Miami Jewish Film Festival, and San Diego Latino Film Festival.

Tickets are $15, $10 for students, and can be purchased at http://goldcoastfilmfestival.org/last-suit/.
