Will (David Call), an unemployed and aimless playboy in Brooklyn, New York, has spent his 20's skating on easy charm from one casual, distant affair to the next. Noticing his friends' happiness as they gradually settle into steady jobs and committed relationships, Will decides to trade apathy for effort in order to find someone with whom he can start the next chapter of his life. Shot on 16mm with artful direction and honest performances, NORTHEAST is a vividly natural portrayal of the pressure of impending adulthood.
