In this bold, genre-defying horror-musical mashup — the playful and confident debut of Polish director Agnieszka Smoczynska — a pair of carnivorous mermaid sisters are drawn ashore in an alternate ’80s Poland to explore the wonders and temptations of life on land. Their tantalizing siren songs and otherworldly aura make them overnight sensations as nightclub singers in the half-glam, half-decrepit fantasy world of Smoczynska’s imagining. In a visceral twist on Hans Christian Andersen’s original Little Mermaid tale, one sister falls for a human, and as the bonds of sisterhood are tested, the lines between love and survival get blurred. A savage coming-of-age fairytale with a catchy new-wave soundtrack, lavishly grimy sets, and outrageous musical numbers, THE LURE explores its themes of sexuality, exploitation, and the compromises of adulthood with energy and originality.
This raw, real and hilarious debut centers on a couple (director Zoe Lister-Jones and Adam Pally) who can’t stop fighting. In a last-ditch effort to save their marriage, they decide to turn the fights into songs and, with the help of a neighbor (Fred Armisen), start a band. A story of love, loss and rock and roll, BAND AID is a witty, perceptive view of modern romance, with some seriously catchy hooks to boot.
