Yelling Fire in an Empty Theater

Made for less than the monthly rent of the apartment it was filmed in, this unusual lo-fi comedy is a tribute to youthful naivety and skyscraper-sized expectations. Arriving in New York, recent college grad Lisa moves in with an eccentric couple and soon becomes entangled in their strange and crumbling relationship. Featuring a cast of Brooklyn's brightest up-and-comers, this DIY debut is a loving throwback to 2000s indies and no-wave NYC cinema while satirizing the city-is-a-character movies.
