May I Be Frank
At age 54, Frank Ferrante weighs 290 pounds and has contracted Hepatitis C after a lifetime of drug and alcohol abuse. He's on multiple medications, undergoing chemo, and drinks ten espressos a day. At Café Gratitude, a raw food café in San Francisco, Frank meets Ryland, the café's manager, who asks, “What is one thing you'd like to do before you die?” Frank answers, -I want to fall in love one more time, but with a body like this, no one will love me, because I don't love myself.- Ryland, his brother Cary, and best friend Conor take this as a challenge to help Frank address his weight, health, relationships, and learn to love himself in just 42 days. Discussion with film subject Frank Ferrante to follow.
