Robin’s Hood

Letter to A.K.
(Leilani Lumen / 2002)
Lyrical reflection on an irresistible yet impossible ex.
Modern Languages Auditorium / FREE
Still from Robin's Hood

Dubbed by critics "the little film that could," Sara Millman’s first feature recasts the Robin Hood legend as an urban romance between an idealistic social worker and a charming French thief. The streets and alleys of Oakland take the place of Sherwood Forest, and the evil king is institutionalized racism and poverty. These partners in love and crime face an uncertain future, as Brooklyn’s drive to steal from the rich fuels Robin’s fire to give to the poor.

"a disarmingly sexy blue-collar romance…full of heart and electric chemistry between the two exceptionally gorgeous leads"—Outfest.
