starring Denise Richards, Julia Faye West with Mike Tyson
Anyone who has ever watched a reality show, has seen Paris Hilton, the Kardashians or similar, will be highly entertained by this witty parody of social media celebs and reality television stars. Our young beauty London's life is a self-indulgent fantasy whirlwind of partying, mansions, yachts,
private jets, pet psychics and a celebrity posse.
Then, after a drunken fall puts her in the hospital,
she sets out to steal back the limelight from her
reality television arch-rivals, the Kim sisters.
Are these celebs-for-no-reason marketing geniuses,
or are they just the accidental beneficiaries of the
public's stupidity? London hopes to set them straight
in this hilarious, from-the-headlines, comedy.
Provocative. Unconventional. Funny, clever and inventive.

CORNELIA AND HER LOVERS
Screen adaptation of a classical gem of Argentinian literature
an award winning story by Silvina Ocampo
Director Daniel Rosenfeld (Winner of Best New Director Award at the Venice Film Festival) has successfully brought Silvina Ocampo's disturbing strangeness to film, making it a sublime, stylish and hypnotic exploration of the magical realm from which all art originates: the domain of the in-between, the space between two notes, the crack where light gets in.
Beautiful and fragile Cornelia returns to her
supposedly empty Alice in Wonderland-like
childhood home.
As the mirrors begin reflecting
her multiple personalities, lovers mysteriously
appear one by one as if wanting to keep her from
entering the other side from where there is no
return.
The filmmaker manages to stay true to the original
concept of the writer who intends the viewer to be
co-creator in this suspenseful tale of love, longing,
destiny and redemption.
As if by magic, when Cornelia looks into the mirror,
we see our own psyche in the reflections.
