A recently discovered conversation between photographer Peter Hujar and his friend Linda Rosenkrantz in 1974 reveals a glimpse into New York City’s downtown art scene and the personal struggles and epiphanies that define an artist’s life. Ira Sachs, the director behind Keep the Lights On, Love is Strange, and most recently the acclaimed Passages, reunites with Ben Whishaw for this powerful two-hander character study with Rebecca Hall, both delivering career-best performances.

“Despite the limited setting of Rosenkrantz’s apartment, “Peter Hujar’s Day” is a masterclass in composition, creating movement where there is little and finding an unconventional way to film two people talking. Imagine if “My Dinner With Andre” allowed for the characters to continue talking away from the table.” ~ Monica Castillo, RogerEbert.com
