They give him alcohol and drugs, after which the woman has sex with Matthew while the man watches. Nadia (Aunjanue Ellis) abandons the place where she lives. She has a meal on the stairs of a house. The woman living there tells her to leave, but Nadia refuses. The woman throws a bucket of water over her, after which Nadia beats her. In an interview with MovieMaker Magazine, Imperioli said he used techniques from John Cassavetes, his favorite filmmaker, in creating The Hungry Ghosts. Although Imperioli did not appear in the film, he recruited four castmates that he had previously worked together on, from the HBO television series, The Sopranos. The castmates were Schirripa, Angela, Ventimiglia and Curatola. International Film Festival Rotterdam LESS
