I’m so excited to play the Michelle character in Chapter 9 of this upcoming project! Details are below and here’s the link to our Kickstarter: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1471049874/valencia-the-movies-chapter-9
VALENCIA (THE MOVIES):
Valencia (The Movies), is an epic, wild DIY collaboration between 21 filmmakers, each of who has accepted the challenge of translating one chapter of the award-winning novel Valencia into a 5-minute short film.
Bringing together filmmakers and other media artists, including photographers and video artists, Valencia will retell the cult classic story of one twenty-something queer girl’s romp through 1990s San Francisco, earnestly chasing urban adventure with a down-the-rabbit-hole sense of wonder.
Once completed, the string of films can and will be shown together, as well as each be able to stand alone as short narrative films, creating 21 short films that operate together to tell a sprawling and energized narrative.
Chapter 9:
Silas Howard will be directing CHAPTER 9, in which Michelle finds herself, and her lover Iris, in the maelstrom of Iris’s sister’s southern Baptist wedding. Culture clash in the midst of family dysfunction and a near-dog-tragedy come to a head as we witness the complications of judge-y escape artists trying to go home again.
