Evoking the spirit of classic 1970’s filmmaking, The Last Rites of Joe May stars Dennis Farina as a sixty-something, short-money hustler of Rolex knockoffs and bootleg DVDs. When Joe returns home from a lengthy hospital stay he is shocked to find that his landlord thought he was dead and has rented out his apartment to a single mom with a young daughter. Begrudgingly, Joe accepts her offer to share the apartment. With his health failing and resources dwindling, Joe is presented with one last shot at redemption in the eyes of a community that’s all but left him for dead.
