Green (2011) - Synopsis

This debut feature from actor-director Takal stars the terrific Kate Lyn Sheil and Lawrence Michael Levine in a psychological-cum-sexual relationship drama about an intellectual, "green," city-dwelling couple confronted with their own fears and desires when they visit the countryside and form a tumultuous friendship with a down-to-earth yokel, played by the filmmaker herself. The tranquility and placid appeal that the Proust-quoting, Green market-shopping Brooklynite pair find in their summer sublet is counterbalanced by Ernesto Carcamo's eerily haunting score. Fellow BAMcinemaFest director Alex Ross Perry makes a cameo appearance.
