Rogers Park is a 2017 American drama film written by Carlos Treviño and directed by Kyle Henry. The film, set in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago, follows two couples as they navigate challenges in their personal and professional lives. The film premiered at the 2017 Chicago International Film Festival.
Grace (Sara Sevigny), who runs a preschool, and her husband, Zeke (Antoine McKay), celebrate a wedding anniversary in the movie's opening; their good time is spoiled by Grace's brother, Chris (Jonny Mars), making a toast that turns into a rant. Chris, who has a chip on his shoulder (one that's too well supplemented by a man bun), is a one-time hot-shot novelist permanently stuck on his second book. His partner, Deena (Christine Horn), a local activist, is getting fed up with him fast.
