by Eugene Kotlyarenko. 2021. 81 min.
To kick off our fresh spring series, we are pleased to welcome Eugene Kotlyarenko and his latest movie, WE ARE (2021). A tightly packed, resourcefully crafted New York tale - stamped in the recent past while looking into the bizarre future we now occupy. An intrepid ensemble of hapless anti heroes brings out a singular movie about family, power, and virtual reality. Starring Dasha Nekrasova, Keith Poulson, Vishwam Velandy, Andy Faulkner, and an 18 month old Lucien Fleischner.
Premiere! Post-screening discussion with director.
