A24 has released the first trailer for writer/director Chad Hartigan's ("This Is Martin Bonner") Morris from America, a unique coming-of-age comedy that follows the lives of a father and son played by Craig Robinson and Markees Christmas, who suddenly relocate to Germany, where fish-out-of-water hilarity and drama ensues.
Morris from America won two prizes at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award for Hartigan, and a Special Jury Award for Robinson, who has been receiving tremendous praise for his touching and nuanced performance in his first dramatic role.
Also starring Carla Juri, Lina Keller, Jakub Gierszal, and Eva Löbau, Morris from America opens in theaters on August 19.
A heartwarming and crowd-pleasing coming-of-age comedy with a unique spin, Morris from America centers on Morris Gentry (Markees Christmas, in an incredible breakout performance) a 13-year-old who has just relocated with his single father, Curtis (Craig Robinson) to Heidelberg, Germany. Morris, who fancies himself the next Notorious B.I.G., is a complete fish-out-of-water—a budding hip-hop star in an EDM world. To complicate matters further, Morris quickly falls hard for his cool, rebellious, 15-year-old classmate Katrin. Morris sets out against all odds to take the hip-hop world by storm and win the girl of his dreams.
