— Best Picture and Best Actor at the SOHO International Film Festival,
–Best Feature Film and Best Director at the Nyack Film Festival last fall.
Nyack Film Festival Director Richard Quinn says that the film “digs deeply into the center of psychological and philosophical tension as a spiritual thriller.”
The Reunion is based on the real-life traumatic childhood experience of Dave Rosenberg, the film’s writer and producer who also stars as the protagonist, Ricky Reilly. Ricky, a former actor who is seeking spiritual fulfillment, suddenly has his life turned upside down when he runs into his childhood bully. Seeing his old nemesis reawakens memories and emotions that compel Ricky to finally face his greatest fear in order to discover a new definition of manhood.
The film also stars Andrea Modica, Dinh James Doan and Cara Ronzetti, with special appearances by Drama Desk Award-winning actor Austin Pendleton and Actor/Comedian Jim Norton.

This film was the baby of Dave Rosenberg. It’s about Dave, his friends (both male and female), and others who weren’t friends who felt that they were a step up from other students like Dave. Those in the “in-group” turned on Dave and one kid decided to make an example of him. It was an event/memory that Rosenberg never forgot. There are always situations in high school where someone tries to humiliate another student just because they can. I have experienced it.. and I am betting you did too.
The Reunion will be distributed via Gravitas Ventures to all North American TVOD and digital platforms, starting February 1st, 2022. This deal was negotiated by Megan Huggins of Gravitas Ventures and DJ Dodd of Future Proof Films on behalf of the filmmakers.
MORE ABOUT THE FILM
The Reunion is a passion project created over two decades by Rosenberg with his friends and colleagues, Andrea Modica and Dinh Doan. The film follows in the footsteps of similar films born by brotherhood, such as Swingers, Good Will Hunting, and Blindspotting. The Reunion illuminates New York City in the way movies like Annie Hall, Manhattan, and Taxi Driver did in the 1970s.
The film is the product of nearly 100 dedicated filmmakers, collaborating on the East Coast and West Coast, on a very low budget, with all the creativity, talent, grit and determination of a Scorsese film.
