Common Senses

An embarrassment to her family and shunned by her friends, kleptomaniac Erin struggles to put her life in order after her release from prison. She finds companionship in a childhood acquaintance named Luis, who now works as a hustler on the streets of Chicago, but their burgeoning friendship is strained when a child they befriend goes missing, forcing them to confront their issues of trust, responsibility and atonement. Told through five chapters by five award-winning Chicago filmmakers, Common Senses emerges as an engrossing examination of urban humanity. In the tradition of New York Stories.
