Sweet Dreams, Professional boxer Gary "Tiger" Balletto, who after treading upon the memories of a fellow boxer killed in the ring, attempts to unionize the sport of boxing for the purpose of fighters gaining benefits, health insurance, and future jobs outside of boxing. Derek Fleming, dreams of upholding a wise-guy reputation, but faces a difficult disconnect due to his gentle, soft-spoken persona and often quirky ways. Together, they anchor a dazzlingly sumptuous and reflective study of Italian life and culture in contemporary American society. Set in Providence, Rhode Island, this feature-length documentary is character study and cultural analysis all at once. With a frenetic and addictive visual style, Sweet Dreams follows the lives of working class ethnic Americans without reducing its subjects to stereotypes or clichés. It is an astonishing film about finding destiny, inspiration, faith, fatherhood, human spirit, the role of friends and family, the ethics of the working man, and perseverance. Here is a boxing movie like no other you've ever seenabout the battles of everyday life, the challenges of raising a family and the aspirations of success that still keep citizens of all colors chasing after The American Dream.
