Overview

Harry Lehman is an aging pickpocket who plies his trade with ever-diminishing returns in a drastically changed New York. Wallets stuffed with cash have been replaced by easily cancelled credit cards, and Harry struggles to make ends meet as he cares for his disabled wife, Rosie. When he unwittingly purloins and fences a valuable USB stick, Harry finds himself in a race against time to return the loot or face the rage of a vengeful crime family.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

An aging craftsman finds himself trapped between his obsolete skill set and a life-or-death obligation, caught in a taut cat-and-mouse game through a city that has left him behind. The film mines suspense from the collision between anachronism and consequence.
