The two Australian siblings--and long-time OC comrades--who make up Soda Jerk are arguably thee finest remix makers on the planet, and now they have scored a huge international cinema hit with this jaw-dropping found-footage fable taking the form of a suburban stoner musical! Through genius editing strokes, mischievous rotoscoping, and masterful VFX wizardry, they have managed to concoct a multi-award-winning (Berlinale!) ”compilation narrative” that is in fact stitched together from almost a thousand Hollywood movie samples, mostly from the miserable milieu leading up to and during the Trump presidency. Their seamless, insanely clever montage conjures up a critical--and comic!--psychotropic spectacle that follows an American neighborhood as consensus reality disintegrates into conspiracy, culture wars, and zombie revolution. Opening the evening is a set of provocative shorts by Vicki Bennett, Animal Charm, and The Simpsons that similarly satirize US values and mythologies. $9

OtherZine Issue #33
“PINK VS. ORANGE”
This issue #33 of OTHERZINE incorporates the DNA of another San Francisco Bay-born radical publication, Bad Subjects. This is its issue #92 too, settled in to occupy some of Other Cinema’s comfy seats here until its own website undergoes reconstruction. We hold hands as the movie unspools.Viva Pink, standing up against Orange! In the January 2017 Women’s March, Pink Pussy hats asserted female leadership and activism. The 2016 Presidential campaign of pinko (OK, socialist Democrat) Bernie Sanders excited and involved many voters, especially millennials. President Donald Trump, his hair and skin alternating between various shades of orange/lemon yellow/yogurt pink, has galvanized American and global opposition to his policies, his insults, his general demeanor. And as “Orange is the New Black” reminded us, incarceration is always a risk for the disobedient and, perhaps, dissident.
