In the Heights
Set over the course of three days in NYC’s mostly Dominican neighbourhood Washington Heights, bodego owner Usnavi is our protagonist. Musing on whether closing his store and retiring to the Dominican Republic is the right move after inheriting his grandmother’s fortune, Usnevi’s days are peppered by his vibrant neighbours and friends – who he finds may just be his family. Directed by Crazy Rich Asians’ Jon M. Chu and with a screenplay by Miranda’s co-creator Quiara Alegría Hudes, IN THE HEIGHTS shows us familiar faces (Anthony Ramos, Hamilton; Stephanie Beatriz, Short Term 12, and Miranda himself) as well as talented screen newcomers (Leslie Grace) – and a whole lot of heart.
