10th Annual Brisbane Queer Film Festival
Brisbane Powerhouse and Volkswagen Present
We Are The Mods
Sun 5 Apr 09
Drama
High school loner, Sadie, befriends the wild new girl, Nico, and together they explore sex, drugs and rock and roll by embracing 1960’s British Mod culture in present day California.
This teen drama that follows the familiar “good girl corrupted by bad” storyline offers a good-hearted homage to not only seminal films of the 1960s but also to the heady rush of young artistic discovery familiar to any sensitive ex-high schooler.
Cassidy‘s tale of the contemporary mod subculture — teens in geometrically balanced dresses and suits who listen to British-flavored rock and ska and drive Vespa scooters — is full of knowing nods to Antonioni‘s Blow-Up, Godard‘s Bande à part and the films of William Klein.
