“A Latex Comedy”

ComedyDrama

A has-been French filmmaker wants a Hong Kong actress to be the heroine in a rendering of Les Vampires.

VIBE

A dizzying, meta-fictional dive into the chaotic world of filmmaking. It’s a disorienting, yet fascinating, look at identity and artifice, wrapped in a stylish, indie package. Feels like a fever dream about the industry.
