TWO MEN IN L.A. U.S.A. Independent Cinema - Shorts

Four wildly different comedies from emerging filmmakers. The Bruce Diet is Jeff Baron’s comedy/horror film about the “perfect diet” in which you can eat as much as you like and lose weight forever – all for only $75. In John Helliker’s offbeat Norha and the Microbabe, a self-centered avant-garde couple become parents of an “instant” baby. John Lugar’s satirical look at Hollywood follows a transplanted New Yorker trying to make it in the industry in Alyce in Wonderland. Two Men in L.A., from Peter Rosevski, tells the story of a Russian and an American who spend a day in LA in search of trust and partnership. – Pearl Fisher
