Gypo
Drama, Dir. Jan Dunn, 2005
Screens: Wednesday, October 4th at 7:15pm
"Jan Dunn's emotionally charged debut feature Gypo, tells the story of Helen (well-known British actor Pauline McLynn) and Paul, an unhappily married working-class couple in their mid forties, barely holding it together caring for their 18-year old daughter Penny’s out-of-wedlock newborn son. Their loveless marriage is shaken to the core when Tasha, a young Romany Czech refugee is befriended by Penny. While Tasha inspires xenophobic vitriol from Paul, she evokes a much warmer response from Helen who, as she grows closer to Tasha and her mother Irine (famous Czech export Rula Lenska), begins to sense the possibility of a brighter future. Winner of the $10,000 First Feature Award at the San Francisco International LGBT Film Festival." [info] [tickets]
Love Sick
Drama, Dir. Tudor Giurgiu, 2006
Screens: Wednesday, October 4th at 9:10pm
"Love Sick centers on two Bucharest university students, Alex (Ioana Barbu) and Christina (Zooey Deschanel look-alike Maria Popistasu), who are over the moon about each other. They mask their romance as friendship before the prying eyes of others, but Alex and “Kiki” are in love, even though the two girls are polar opposites. Alex, from the countryside, is quiet and studious, eager to make her parents proud; Kiki, from Bucharest itself, is always ready to put fun above books. But keeping their relationship quiet is only one of the duo’s problems, since Christina's relationship with her older brother, Sandu, is pretty intense. Full of charged emotions, the trio seems headed for disaster." [info] [tickets]
