Brooklyn's Brighton Beach Is Ready For Its Closeup in ‘Anora’
South Brooklyn is a lot of things. It’s an amusement park, both literally thanks to Coney Island and its thrill rides and figuratively because of the eccentric boardwalk of Brighton Beach lined with bars and restaurants open late into the night. It’s also home to New York City's Eastern European community, one rich with culture and characters.
