Gifts of Disposition is a film deeply rooted in the raw and unscripted moments of life, inspired by the principles of cinema verité.
This film captures the gritty reality of existential struggles through the lens of an unexpected friendship between George, a heroin addicted chess hustler, and Vivienne, a determined teenager from the neighboring Section 8 housing. George and Vivienne find in each other an unlikely kinship that transcends their immediate life challenges.
Set against the backdrop of a community marked by struggle, the story delves into themes of drug abuse, the search for role models, and the existential quest for meaning beyond one’s circumstances.
