WHAMMY!, Los Angeles
*Every year we show exclusively shot-on-videotape works throughout September for something we call:* ***SOV SEPTEMBER****. Join us for this year's month-long exploration into the depths of some of the most under-appreciated margins of filmmaking. Usually no-budget, usually put together by small crews of friends (and family members, and neighbors), sometimes over-the-top gross, sometimes transgressive, and almost always like no other film you've ever seen - this series is for cinematically adventurous travelers only!* A college student goes undercover as a stripper and male hustler to infiltrate the crime duo responsible for his brother's death. Twin Cheeks feels like if John Waters picked up a video camera and made a Twin Peaks homage and sprinkled in a dash of Rainer Werner Fassbinder for good measure. Filmed in a lot of the same locations David Lynch used but with the absurdity turned way up. Kelly Hughes is an unsung legend of the underground and we are so happy to bring his work to more people.
