Americano

Deny Gallagher

Jack Armstrong is a recent college graduate whose dream of playing professional basketball comes crashing down after tearing his ACL during his senior year of college. He comes home to rehab in hopes of resuming his hoop dreams while running the Armstrong family’s coffee shop called Americano. His group of friends, Maria, Antonio, and Mak, are also back in town and hanging around the coffee shop waiting for adulthood to begin. Meanwhile, long-time Armstrong family nemesis George Laslo has reemerged in his latest effort to take the coffee shop and turn the land into luxury condos. He enlists, Dara, who has her own motives and intentions for the coffee shop, but her unlikely connection to Jack’s past puts the future of both the coffee shop and the friend group in danger. ‘Americano’ is a coming-of-age story wrapped in a heist movie where the only certainty is change.
