NewFilmmakers NY's Spring Series 2013 continues with ONE CITY NIGHT, directed by Coralie Jeanquier on Wednesday, April 24th at 8 p.m. Imagine if you were forced to meet with your crazy neighbor! A dark comedy about getting acquainted with the beloved loonies of New York City.
A down on her luck, 27 year old quiet Kiki, gets fired from her job one night and loses her key on her way home, downtown Manhattan. Dumped by her boyfriend and locked out, Kiki starts out by asking a neighbor to use a phone to call a locksmith. Her encounters with the tenants of the building take her deeper into an undiscovered, strangely delirious world that she has ignored up until now. Her urban odyssey forces her to meet with an old jazz singer with a very questionable past - a demented artist and a superintendent with a dark secret. Kiki's encounters tint her along the way, taking in the inevitable New York lunacy that we all know surrounds us.
This is a dark comedy about the absurity of city life going beyond the four walls of your apartment and opening up the craziness that lies beyond them.
The screening will take place at the Anthology Film Archives, 32 Second Avenue @ 2nd St, New York City. Tickets for the evening are only $6.
