THE FEELS
General Admission: First come, First served seating
Jenée Lemarque, 2017, USA, 88 min
“Is this what an orgasm feels like?” asks a woman engaged to the love of her life. And all hell breaks loose, with a slow burn. Andi, (Constance Wu) and Lu (Angela Trimbur) host a bachelorette weekend get-away in the mountains with their closest friends. A little molly and tequila open up all kinds of issues (i.e. secrets) and get everybody talking … sort of. The subject of orgasms is the frame for the comedy, but the friendships are what fill up the house. An improvisational comedic troupe that includes stand-up comedian Ever Mainard as Regular Helen and Josh Fadem as … well, Josh, Lu’s best friend. Filmmaker Jenée LaMarque rounds out the cast with her real life best friends, Karin Tatoyan, a Berlin-based musician, and co-writer, Lauren Parks, for a romp of romance, angst and titillation. (SH)
