Mr. Manhattan

Mason Bradley is a man who has built his life around a career in law. That choice cost him his engagement. Then something he did not expect happens: he becomes the sole guardian of his late brother’s children. A responsibility he was in no way prepared for lands in front of him. What forms between him and the children changes the order of his life and of theirs. The film tells this as a family story with feeling in it. The account builds no large conflict; it looks at the problems of fitting together day to day. The hundred and twelve minutes are spread over several months. Carlos PenaVega and Alexa PenaVega appear in Brian Herzlinger’s American film, completed in 2024.
