A Special Jury Award winner at the Sundance Film Festival, this drama stars a then-19-year-old Matty Rich (who also wrote and directed it). Rich plays Larry, a troubled teen living in the rough Red Hook section of Brooklyn who decides he wants out and turns to crime to fund his escape. But his plan involves scamming the neighborhood's biggest drug kingpin, a heist that's dangerous at best.

"This movie was created in 1991 by Matty Rich when he was just 19. It stars Lawrence Gilliard Jr. known for his role as D'Angelo Barksdale in The Wire and is his film debut. Matty Rich also plays a character named Larry Love in the movie. Matty Rich also created The Inkwell starring Larenz Tate. These were his only two movies with the Inkwell being his second and last movie due to both movies not doing as well as he had hoped. "
