The Horror of Dolores Roach

Dolores Roach emerges from prison after 16 years, returning to a severely gentrified Washington Heights with only $200 and her clothes on her back. Her boyfriend is missing, and her family is long gone. Dolores reunites with an old stoner buddy named Luis, who welcomes her into his dilapidated storefront Empanada Loca. The promise of newfound stability quickly turns to shock when she must work in the basement for room and board. When professional success threatens her new life, "Magic Hands Dolores" becomes a dangerous journey driven by survival instincts. As she and Luis navigate their shared struggles, they develop an unspoken bond that puts them on a collision course with unexpected consequences.
