Told over the span of three days, THE LIMITS is about four
seemingly disparate stories that come together in a seedy
motel at the edge of the city.
A social outcast fulfills his every fantasy a week before ending
his life, a black youth on the run from an inner city gang finds
work with the motel's East Indian owners, a suburban family
man begins a torrid affair, and an ex-prostitute who's found God
is haunted by her past when her pimp is released from prison.
Unaware of their inter-connected roles in each other's lives, a
volatile event at the film's end sets forth a life or death chain reaction
that affects them all.
First-time director, Ben Mazzotta's provocative drama, THE LIMITS,
invites the viewer to take a closer look - beyond conventional
assumptions about class and racial identity to the vital truths
within each character. It asks - what would you do in their place,
under those circumstances?
