Dirty Laundry

Filmmaker Maurice Jamal’s (Ski Trip) second feature is a family comedy that was a major hit on the film festival circuit last year. A prodigal son story with a twist, Dirty Laundry follows Patrick (Rockmond Dunbar), a black gay man who seems to have the perfect life - a great job at an upscale magazine, a cute young boyfriend and a hot apartment. Then a knock on his door sends him back to the traditionally crazed southern family he hasn’t seen in a decade. Mother Evelyn (Loretta Devine) is keeping a secret from him, nosy church lady Aunt Lettuce (Jenifer Lewis) won’t leave him alone, and his boyfriend makes a surprise appearance! With a rocking, gospel-infused soundtrack and an appearance by Alec Mapa, this wonderful comedy is designed to tickle the funny bone and touch the soul.
