Crossing Over

Synopsis

Social Media Hollywood and anything goes - Eight actors with stars in their eyes and dreams bigger than their budgets set about to audition for ensemble lead roles in new Hollywood Movie 'Trading Faces', which could be the big break they've been working towards. Their frustrated Agent (Louise Jameson) is hopeful of a big pay day and seeing her investment in them finally pay off. All that stands in their way are two very unpredictable LA Casting Directors and the movie's specific yet unusual requirements. Will they keep their nerve? Will they get their big break? Will their Agent avoid a nervous breakdown? A tongue in cheek comedy that explores the pleasures and pitfalls of striving to achieve your dreams in Hollywood and the realisation of unknown factors that present themselves along the way.

After an abortion, a woman wanders the streets of Paris, engaging in a series of silent encounters under the neon lights of Chinatown. Taking place over the course of a single night and drawing inspiration from the writings of cult literary figures Kathy Acker, Bernadette Mayer, and Alice Notley, the film intertwines dream and reality. Shot in the reddish glow of karaoke bars, cinemas, and clubs - a collective, feminist autofiction with a cast of artists, poets, and actors.
