you won't get much out of Where God Left His Shoes other than an appreciation of the fact that you have a home for the holidays.

Rating: 3/5 --
Writer-director Salvatore Stabile keeps his affecting story hurtling forward with such grit and integrity it's easy to forgive its loaded setup and occasional lapses in detail and logic.

Los Angeles Times
Rating: B+ --
Writer-director Salvatore Stabile has a good eye for the details of hard-luck ordinariness, and he sketches believable family bonds with a minimum of flourish.

Entertainment Weekly
The acting, the on-the-fly atmosphere (the film was shot quickly), and Leguizamo's increasingly urgent hustle are deeply evocative, but parts of the movie are almost too painful to endure.
New York Magazine/Vulture
This story opens our eyes to the sub-world of heart-breaking homeless shelters, showing the main holiday season as the busiest time.

If you could cut all the music from Where God Left His Shoes, you might actually have a solid family drama.

Slant Magazine
Stabile, a Brooklyn native with a resume in TV production, knows how to line up a permit and scout out perfect South Brooklyn Italian manors and melancholic intersections. He gets interesting scenes, too.

Product Description:
John Leguizamo stars as a father, Frank, whose family is forced from their New York City apartment and into a homeless shelter. But on Christmas Eve, it looks as though the clouds are beginning to part: an apartment is available for them in a housing project if Frank can find a job. So begins a winter odyssey as Frank and his stepson wander the snowy streets in search of work.
