A confused young artist is torn between his family and his future in Shelter, a sensitive romantic drama from the writer and director Jonah Markowitz.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
Shelter may only be shoreline deep, and its ending fanciful, but the film captures the beauty, thrill and ache of young love and extracts a casual joy out of the process.

Rating: 2/4 --
A coming-out, coming-of-age movie that is mediocre and very well-intentioned.

Rating: 6/10 --
Complex characterizations by Wright and Rowe and outstanding cinematography by Joseph White make this film particularly worth checking out.

Shelter rises very high indeed, thanks to a superb performance by Trevor Wright in the lead role, a strong supporting cast, very good cinematography and, most of all, emotional authenticity.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
At the epicenter of this tale is Zach (Trevor Wright is always a pleasure to watch but the measure of his acting talent requires a script with more scope to reveal his depth).

Rating: 2.5/5 --
The first theatrical release from the here! Network's Independent Film Initiative, shaves the edges off the genre's hoariest tendencies, for which it deserves credit and will hopefully be the start of a trend. But it's still an uninspiring drama.

Product Description:
This gritty look at New York City centers on three troubled teens living in Bedford Stuyvesant. The trio--composed of a hustler, drug-addicted mom-to-be, and a loner--escape the city in a stolen car and try to create a new life as they squat in a deserted beach house. Even darker than contemporaries like A GUIDE TO RECOGNIZING YOUR SAINTS and RAISING VICTOR VARGAS, SHELTER presents a picture of teens trying to survive in the cruel city.
