Evanston's Talking Pictures Festival presents an exceptional lineup of independent films from March 8-11.
Shira Piven, of Evanston’s renowned theatre family, returns to her hometown with FULLY LOADED, a wonderfully raunchy ride through night-time Los Angeles, chronicling the misadventures of two feisty single moms (former Chicagoan Paula Killen and Lisa Orkin) on a rare evening out. When a sexy hook-up with a total stranger (Dweezil Zappa) becomes a sketchy confrontation with reality, the women hit the road a little drunk, but high on love/lust and what might have been. This dark comedy allows viewers to eavesdrop on the way women really feel about men and what they talk about when no one else is around. Hurtling through the night in a mini van, Killen and Orkin deliver a sassy, edgy take on what it means to be a single woman of a certain age.
With Director Shira Piven and Producer/Actor Paula Killen in person!
Attendees are invited to a reception hosted by the Piven Theatre Workshop after the Q&A.
