Bummer in the summer! What happens with a pack of listless teens stop being polite, and start getting real serious about making money with their competing DIY fruit drink stands?A special treat from our neighbors to the north, Terry Chiu’s coming-of-age send-up left audiences in stitches from Austin to Buenos Aires.

Scrappy, honest, but hardly saccharine, Chiu’s improvisatory style and keen eye for interpersonal pettiness goes toe-to-toe with the more polished debuts of his better-heeled colleagues. See the film birth.movies.death called “the heart inside the roughest cinematic outsider art,” when MANGOSHAKE lands at Brooklyn’s outsiders-only cinema.
