film festival circuit in the summer of 1997 winning recognition at
every festival that it appeared in including Best First Feature, Studio
Prize and Best Actress for Edie Falco at the AFI International Film

major international film festivals, the Mannheim Heidelberg Festival in
Germany and the Milan Film Market (MIFED) in Italy.

It won the Best Feature Film and Best Director at the 2009 Long Island Film Festival as well as Best Director and Best Actress at the Hoboken International Film Festival.
