About Destination Unknown
Destination Unknown is a tale of cousins chasing their dreams on the streets of Jackson Heights, NY. Pepe and Rico are on a path that teases them with success but drags them to a vicious reality. Pepe struggles to escape his violent and sordid world by up-scaling his position from gypsy-cab driver to limousine chauffeur. In order to make fast cash his friend Jerry talks him into becoming a bag-man for a local gangster. Rico is a young aspiring actor in hot pursuit of glory despite the formidable odds. He falls for Marisol, a beautiful neighbor, and as their relationship intensifies he discovers more about her than he is prepared for.
Directed by Nestor Miranda, Destination Unknown leans on a strong ensemble — Yancey Arias, Marcos Antonio Miranda, Lisa Vidal — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1997.
