High Hopes Synopsis:
Back from Jamaica, a suburban slacker (Cole Pensinger) promises his girlfriend (Stacey Giambastiani) that he is finally ready to put his weed habit behind him... just not yet. True to form, he calls his friends to smoke with him, only to lose sight of the weed. Now their desperate, yet lazy, search for weed leads them to a pimp, a drug dealer, and a hustler. Meanwhile, the guys are befuddled by a downstairs roommate (Phil Mazo) who is as crazy about exercise as they are about marijuana. With little money, so-so wit, but lots of heart, these friends may yet learn that weed is not the only purpose in life... though it may just be the most satisfying one.
Award-winning filmmaker Yuri Alves makes a drastic departure from his darker, dramatic work by blithely framing a colorful and humorous world within a house.
