ALEGRA & JIM, based on a real-life encounter with legendary indie auteur James Toback, is about the conduct of people with power, the allure of the exotic, and the desire to be special. The film features iconic Canadian actor Earl Pastko (THE SWEET HEREAFTER, HIGHWAY 61). Written by Miranda Calderon and directed by Matt Purdy. Based on a true story, this is an icky film about an icky subject. Beware!
