The Complete 2003 Festival Schedule


GASOLINE
(BENZINA)
Cinerama Theatre
Saturday, October 18
7:00pm

At a gas station in Italy, young Lenni is forging a new life free from her domineering mother, and is wildly in love with the tough and sexy mechanic, Stella. When mother pays an unwanted visit, an argument ensues and the unlucky lovers find themselves with an accidental matricide on their hands. Disposing of the corpse is trickier than they thought and sends them on what quickly becomes the road trip from hell. Pursued by the voice of Lenni’s dead mother and slimy homophobic punks, the girls struggle to hold onto their love for each other amidst the panic and chaos. Director and co-writer Monica Stambrini has created an urgent biker-chick noir film that is one spark away from an explosion. Joining the ranks of THELMA AND LOUISE and BUTTERFLY KISS, GASOLINE is the latest of the feminist fury road flicks.

GASOLINE (BENZINA); Monica Stambrini, director; 2001; Italy; 90 minutes; 35mm (in Italian with English subtitles)
