Directed by Andrew Dosunmu, RESTLESS CITY tells the story of an African immigrant surviving on the fringes of New York City where music is his passion, life is a hustle, and falling in love is his greatest risk.
RESTLESS CITY will mark the third feature from African-American Film Festival Releasing Movement, the theatrical distribution entity powered by the nation’s top black film organizations. The collective activates quality black independent films with simultaneous theatrical engagements in select cities.
“Both in its narrative and visual quality, RESTLESS CITY takes my breath away. Andrew Dosunmu is a brilliant artist who has crafted a stunning, groundbreaking film.” said Ava DuVernay, Founder, African-American Film Festival Releasing Movement. “We’re thrilled to work with Andrew and his passionate team to share this gem with film lovers.”
RESTLESS CITY is directed by Andrew Dosunmu, from a screenplay by Eugene Gussenhoven. Katie Mustard and Matthew Parker produce, with executive producers Audra Alexxi Jones, Munu Elifituri, David Raymond and Tony Okungbowa. The film stars Sy Alassane, Nicole Grey, Danai Gurira, Anthony Okungbowa, Babs Olusanmokun. Cinematography by Bradford Young, with editing by Oriana Soddu and costumes by Mobolaji Dawodu.

i wanna go!!
Love indies, I’m a Jersey girl. Favorite topics always include urban realism, an individual’s struggle to create, passion, fashion, music etcetera. Right up my alley(s). Thanks.
Would love to see this film. Lived in NYC for 6 years and now back in PDX living near the Clinton. Sounds like a must do for me and my wife! Cheers.
there’s no place like nyc. i’d be fascinated to see it from dosunmu’s perspective.
I have many African immigrant neighbors and customers and it’s time white middle-class people started paying attention to them.
There’s this girl…
This looks amazing! I would love to be one of the first in PDX to see it! Live near Clinton…so, we can even walk! :)
pandas are immigrants too
I would like to bring a teenage girl from Africa who is in the US for medical care. It would be her first time seeing a movie on the big screen!
Sounds like a great story would love to check it out
I’d love to go to see a show about hustle. I’ve been hustlin all my life or love, records, jobs, skateboards, etc.
Please help a hustler out?
