The Holiday Rush

Coming soon · Nov 17

Bogdan Savchuk left his father's Pittsburgh deli at twenty six, after his father said he cooked like a man in a hurry to leave. Now his father is gone, the Christmas Eve orders are piling up, and a developer wants the building. Every day at a quarter past twelve the developer's broker, Vesna Kozak, eats her pierogi at the window and never says a word about the sale. Bogdan wants to know why, and he wants her back tomorrow.
