“THE HAPPY SAD” to Open in NYC August 16

THE HAPPY SAD

Rodney Evan’s latest film, THE HAPPY SAD, that follows two couples, one black and one white, whose lives collide as they navigate open relationships and sexual identity, opens in NYC on August 16, 2013. 

Two young couples in New York – one black and gay, one white and heterosexual – find their lives intertwined as they create new relationship norms, explore sexual identity, and redefine monogamy. The film therefore uses the multicultural ensemble to explore the questions that alternative twenty- and thirty-year olds face in a culture where there appears to be endless possibilities for sex but also a resistance to any definitive model for a “proper” relationship. It juxtaposes the storylines of the two main couples Marcus (Leroy McClain) and Aaron (Charlie Barnett) , Stan (Carmeron Scoggins) and Annie (Sorel Carradine) ) to highlight the ethical dilemmas facing men and women who are trying to create new ways to be in a loving relationship, while recognizing that monogamy might not be for them.
