Suspended between carefree youth and the harsh realities of the adult world, a teenage girl experiences an unsettling awakening in this haunting vision of innocence lost. Based on Joyce Carol Oates’ celebrated short story “Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?” and produced for PBS’ American Playhouse, the narrative debut from director Joyce Chopra features a revelatory breakout performance from Laura Dern as Connie, the fifteen-year-old black sheep of her family whose summertime idyll of beach trips, mall hangouts, and innocent flirtations is shattered by an encounter with a mysterious stranger (a memorably menacing Treat Williams). Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, SMOOTH TALK captures the thrill and terror of adolescent sexual exploration as it transforms the ingredients of a standard coming of age portrait into something altogether more troubling and profound.

    Anchored in observational documentary footage film Anchored in observational documentary footage filmed over three years, TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES weaves together archival footage, experimental virtual reality worlds, an improvised score by Bill Frisell, and a speculative premise based on current events to create a lyrical meditation on progress, history, and how we navigate a sense of loss within ourselves and a changing world.

Premiere Run! TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES opens Friday, March 5 on The Brattlite: brattlefilm.org/brattlite (link in profile)
