Everyday before sunrise, Ahmad stocks his silver vending cart with bagels and coffee and heads out into the gray morning. A widower trying to eke out a living and reestablish contact with his estranged young son, he is just another anonymous working New Yorker until a chance meeting with a Pakistani businessman seems to offer a chance for change. Director Ramin Bahrani subtly captures the intimate details of Ahmad’s working day and the murky hours between midnight and dawn when he might begin to dream of better times.
