A New York Story is from filmmaking team, The Robert Sisters. The cast includes Logan Miller (Escape Room), Annabella Sciorra (Tulsa King), and Academy Award-nominated director Whit Stillman (Metropolitan). A New York Story, previously titled A View of the World from Fifth Avenue, had its world premiere at Geena Davis’ Bentonville Film Festival. The film will be released by Vertical Films on September 6.

Directed by Fiona Robert, who also stars as Annabel, A New York Story follows a young woman who risks being ostracized from an insular New York clique led by her socialite best friend Virginia (Sophia Robert) when she falls for charming photographer Theo. Grappling with the sudden loss of her father, Annabel finds herself torn between the comfortable opulence of her upper crust circle and the vibrant ambitions of the artists downtown. As Theo introduces her to unexplored sides of the city and of herself, how far will Annabel push out of her gilded cage?

Other cast include Richard Ellis (I Am Not Okay With This), Paul Karmiryan (Veronica Mars), Noelle Miller (Spare Me), Francesca Root-Dodson (Succession), Dan Thompson (Three Women), Elaine Hendrix (Dynasty) and Carolyn Farina (The Age of Innocence).

00:00What are you doing?
00:06Oh, I'm sorry, I'm Theophil.
00:08The photographer.
00:09Your friend is very talented.
00:11We've only met once.
00:12Excuse me, we're just hitting up.
00:16Enjoy your night.
00:17Theo, would you like to join us?
00:20You know, New York is back.
00:22Show me your inner animal.
00:30Hello again.
00:32Hi.
00:34What did you see in the photos?
00:36I'm a nihilist.
00:38So nothing.
00:39Mm-hmm.
00:40My stepmom invited me to a dinner in East Hampton.
00:44Well, I'm always up for an adventure.
00:46I don't think you should come.
00:47Why not?
00:48Don't you think that would be crossing the line?
00:50You make me sick and blame it on something else
00:53Do you think I'd let you walk all over me and not tell?
00:56Do you think I'd let you walk all over me and not tell?
00:59Hey, hey, hey, yeah
01:02It's funny how you two have become so close.
01:05Annabelle, your phone's been ringing.
01:11Deep down, do you wonder if you're just following the plot
01:14of other social-climbing kids from good families?
01:24Just tell me you're never gonna see him again.
01:28Annabelle, do you have something you'd like to share?
01:35Your father didn't want you to be an actor.
01:37He didn't want you to suffer.
01:41You ever see Age of Innocence, that Scorsese flick?
01:43Katherine, it's a sin to refer to an Edith Wharton novel
01:46as that Scorsese flick.
01:49And I have some other friends, friends of Theo's.
01:52I just prefer to be around people like us.
01:57Not to be crass.
01:58Don't be crass, then.
01:59How much did your family pay for this apartment, 50 mil?
02:01I think it was 40.
02:06Just a little more.
02:12Oh, don't worry about it, darling.
02:14It's entirely replaceable.
