Richard and Janet are an upwardly-mobile black couple keen to “make it” in New York City. Inspired by Donald Trump’s The Art of the Deal, which Richard is reading, they take social climbing to new heights by adopting a white child. Larry Carty’s delicious satire was selected for the prestigious New Film / New Directors showcase at the Museum of Modern Art and hailed by Janet Maslin in The New York Times.
