Nights and Weekends A man and woman must face the tension that builds between them during a long-distance relationship. It has all the makings of a Mumblecore film and is often categorized as such, but there isn't a single shot in the film that is lacking intention in its editing, construction, or lighting. It's a lot less flat than many in the genre, providing some genuinely beautiful night shots of Chicago at its most frigid.
