Kamikaze Hearts

Tue, Jul 19
7:00 pm Q&A

Midnite weekend screenings happen on Friday & Saturday nights (meaning arrive on Friday and/or Saturday night by 11:45pm for seating, the movie starts after midnite)!

Tue, Jul 19 @ 7:00 pm: Director Juliet Bashore and actress Jennifer Blowdryer will be in person for Q&A and Sharon Mitchell will join via Zoom, moderated by producer Heather Buckley

Director: Juliet Bashore Run Time: 77 min. Format: DCP Rating: NR Release Year: 1986

Starring: Sharon Mitchell, Tigr

Alternately distressing, instructive, contestable and fascinating, Juliet Bashore’s quasi-documentary plunge into the 1980s porn industry takes an unsparing look at issues of misogyny, drug abuse, and exploitation via the story of two women–the naïve newcomer Tigr and her partner, the magnetic, imperious porn veteran Sharon Mitchell–caught in a toxic romance.

By turns mesmerizing and unsettling, Kamikaze Hearts is both a fascinating record of pre-gentrification San Francisco’s X-rated underground and an intense, searing love story. The film offers a disturbing glimpse of the modification of bodies, feelings, and lives.
