Can’t Let It Go is a political comedy set in New York on the eve of the 2016 election. There are five interconnected vignettes all revolving around the lead up to and aftermath of Donald Trump’s surprise victory. At its core, Can’t Let It Go is about unique New York characters and their zany personal and political interactions: an African American gay man being paid as a Trump stand in, a Hillary Clinton campaign worker who moonlights as a dominatrix, a blue collar independent looking to start a kosher laundromat, a conservative Cuban émigré and his socialist daughter, a top Trump campaign worker and his apolitical model girlfriend, and a left wing, dog hating activist and actor who yearns to play John Wilkes Booth.

Each vignette ends in a surreal, nightmare montage. Each character conjures up their own personal and political demons, pulled from both the film itself and from other iconic political imagery. Although the film is primarily set in 2016, the characters are reprised in a 2020 epilogue. Can’t Let It Go is a unique medley of New York, dialogue driven scenes in the style of Noah Baumbach and the visual flair of a higher budget film.
