“Sopranos” actor Michael Imperioli, directing debut “The Hungry Ghosts” will premiere September 15 as “a private screening” at the Rubin Museum in downtown Manhattan, New York to benefit Tibetan refugees and elderly Buddhist monks led by the Dalai Lama.
“The Hungry Ghosts” opened the International Film Festival Rotterdam in the Netherlands earlier this year and features characters floating like ghosts through an intense 36 hours of New York life, wrestling with drugs, alcohol and sex in what Imperioli calls “the human struggle for completion.”
In the film described as a an ensemble psychodrama, a cocaine-fueled radio host drives away his teenage son, who ends up in a park at night. A couple offers him alcohol and drugs, and the woman has sex with the youth while the man watches. In another narrative, a man fresh out of detox searches for his ex-lover, a woman who once taught yoga.
