The Headhunter's Sister

A loosely connected group of friends, lovers, and relatives interact in the midst of a brutal heat wave in this independent comedy-drama. Ray (Bob McGrath), a New Yorker in his early 40s, works as a "headhunter," and is newly married to Teresa (Isabel Robayo), a Colombian immigrant who speaks practically no English. Ray's sister Linda (Elizabeth Schofield) is paying her brother a visit on a vacation from her home in California. During her stay in New York, Linda becomes involved with Harlan (Michael Harris), an addict who introduces her to heroin, his drug of choice, while Teresa begins an affair with Luis (Roberto de la Pena), who is only interested in her money.
