Director: Mollye Asher.
“Slim and Lena” is a modern film noir set in the grit and glamour of the neo-burlesque scene. The story begins, narrated by Slim, when he returns to NYC to settle a beef with Big Daddy, the proprietor of a hip burlesque lounge on the Lower East Side. When Slim discovers that his long lost true love, sweet Lena, has become a burlesque dancer; the typical roles of a noir are turned on their head. Packed with love, sex, and redemption, “Slim and Lena” is the story of how Lena finds her voice and becomes the heroine and narrator of her own story.
Which are the coolest festivals in the world?
Filmmaker Magazine asked their (mostly american) audience and produced this list of 25 "cool festivals".
Most likely with cool parties, free drinks, and open opportunities for indie filmmakers.
Not surprisingly the selection does not list international festivals (besides Locarno) nor established A listers.
So what is YOUR list? Feel free to post a comment.
