Meet-up details

6:30pm Meet in front of the theatre and look for Justin (I will be wearing a blue t- shirt).

There will be an introduction to the film by Michael Lerman, writer of Man From Reno at this screening

What it's about: "A stranger in the increasingly strange city of San Francisco, Japanese crime novelist Aki (Ayako Fujitani - Tokyo!) is unsure of precisely what role she has to play in a real-life murder mystery involving ambiguous MacGuffins and amorphous identities. Unfolding in lonely places such as bookshops and hotel bars, Dave Boyle's (Surrogate Valentine, White On Rice, Big Dreams Little Tokyo) moody thriller uncovers exhilarating new takes on genre conventions. Consequently, it's an alluring l'homme fatal who supplies Aki with the breadcrumb trail of clues that entices her into a labyrinthine plot of sinister dealings. In turn, the aging sheriff (veteran character actor Pepe Serna - Scarface, The Black Dahlia, The Jerk, fantastic in a rare leading role), who should rightfully be riding to her rescue, proves to be equally out of his depth. The game is afoot, the chase is exhilarating and the stakes are perilously high in this inspired neo-noir. (Courtesy of Los Angeles Film Festival)

MAN FROM RENO world premiered at the Los Angeles Film Festival, where it won the Grand Jury Prize for Best Narrative Feature. It went on to receive an Independent Spirit Award nomination for the John Cassavetes award.
