NIGHT MOVES Movie Weekends at Ace Hotel & Swim Club presents GIRLS ON FILM

DAISIES (1966)
Friday 20 Nov 9.30pm // Curated by Maximilla Lukacs

A satirical, wild and irreverent story of teenage rebellion, Vera Chytilova’s “Daisies” is on of the Czech New Wave’s standout moments. The women’s anarchic antics are mirrored by the film’s wildly free-associative montages, psychedelic color and effects and an overriding impression of gleeful anarchy. Few so-called art movies are this much fun.

With short films and videos by Maximillia Lukacs and Sarah Sophie Flicker, Jess Holzworth, Nicole McDonald, Melissa Auf
De Maur and Ashley Conner.

MI VIDA LOCA (1993)
Saturday 21 Nov 8pm // Curated by Allison Anders

Mi Vida Loca is Allison Ander’s brilliant study of girl gangs in Los Angeles’ Echo Park. Anders’ zig-zagging story line allows her to follow side roads that result in beautiful digressions of the sort you wouldn’t find in a more conventional film. Working from her own script, Anders has something like perfect pitch for the secret codes between these sisters.

Director Allison Anders and select cast in attendance.

With “Viva Morrisey” — a short documentary by Jessica Hundley and Jonathan Miertschin.

Also a special acoustic performance from Tiffany Anders.
