Hello everyone, contributing TW writer Kondo here!
The next film from the Tokyo International Lesbian & Gay Film Festival I'd like to introduce is "Drool", a dark comedy starring Laura Harring -- who many of you may recognize from "Mulholland Drive", the 2001 film by "King of Cult" David Lynch.
This wild film tells the story of growing love and trust between two women who spontaneously hit the road after a freak accident brings them the chance to rebuild a shattered family and settle the past. In a never-before-seen adventure, "Drool" makes its own bold and bizarre contribution to the genre of Girls on the Road/Run as epitomized by the 1991 hit "Thelma & Louise".
"Drool" director and screenwriter Nancy Kissam says that she was inspired to make a movie in the tradition of prolific film director John Waters, known for his comedic productions filled with cutting dark humor, revenge and vitriol. But, at the end of the day, "Drool" is less lurid and far more profound. It won the Miami Gay & Lesbian Film Festival's award for Best Fiction Feature and "the buzz" clearly indicates that its storytelling and excitement are second-to-none!
