Lowlands screening

This indie film—made up of a collection of eight shorts—deals with all things LA and tries to figure out how Angelenos form their own identities within a city with an identity crisis. Shot everywhere from Echo Park to Venice—without permits—the film's stories include a lost driver trying to find a hospital, a philosopher hunting for good Chinese food and a character trying to defend the Los Angeles River from East-Coast scoffing. It's an honest interpretation and a bittersweet love song for our city.
