So, when he asks her to prove her love by slitting her wrists, she obliges with only mild hesitation, perhaps because of her other all-consuming love: heroin. Directed by celebrated filmmakers Josh and Benny Safdie (Lenny Cooke, Daddy Longlegs), Heaven Knows What blends fiction, formalism and raw vrit as it follows a young heroin addict (Arielle Holmes) who finds mad love in the streets of New York. The filmwhich world-premiered at Venice (where it won the CICAE award) and subsequently played NYFF, Toronto and SXSW among other prestigious festivalsis based on Holmes' soon-to-be-published memoir Mad Love in New York City. Co-starring Caleb Landry-Jones (X-Men: First Class, Byzantium), Heaven Knows What also features street legend Buddy Duress and gore rap phenom Necro.
