Lemon

58th TIFF: Greek Premiere

Lemon: Α person or thing that proves to be defective, imperfect, or unsatisfactory. Isaac Lachmann is a dud. Isaac Lachmann is 40. Isaac Lachmann is a man in free fall immobilized by mediocrity. His career is going nowhere. His girlfriend of ten years is leaving him. And his overbearing family doesn’t help matters. What did he do to deserve this? The portrait of a loser(as a young man), the counterweight to hipster culture in a bitter and sour indie flick.
