HEAVEN KNOWS WHAT is a fierce portrait of Harley, a young drifter in New York whose life is marked by addiction and an all-consuming, dangerous relationship. Shot in the world the Safdie brothers know intimately, the film looks at street life with urgency and without polish. HEAVEN KNOWS WHAT is less interested in comfort than in the pressure of surviving from one moment to the next.
