I'm Not Stupid by David E. Rodriguez: The story of a mother and her son should be one of love and happiness, but when you put them into an environment that is dirty, decrepit and falling apart, they become like the world around them.
Ashes to Ashes by Harold Pinter: A play best described in the words of the 2005 Nobel Committee's announcement of Pinter's prize in literature: "His plays uncover the precipice under everyday prattle and force entry into oppression's closed rooms".
