Summary
Alone and depressed after the suicide of her lover, American flight attendant Gina (Lindsay Burdge) travels to Paris and hooks up with nightclub bartender Jerome (Damien Bonnard) on her layover. But as Gina falls deeper into lust and opts to stay in France, this harmless rendezvous quickly turns into unrequited amour fou.. When Jerome?s ex Cl?mence (Esther Garrel) reenters the picture, Gina is sent on a downward spiral of miscommunication, masochism, and madness. Inspired by European erotic dramas from the 70?s, THIRST STREET burrows deep into the delirious extremes we go to for love. Narrated by Oscar-winner Anjelica Huston.. Nominated for Best U.S. Narrative Feature at the Tribeca Film Festival. Winner of Best Feature Film at the Denver International Film Festival.. "Somehow, her acting combines with cinematography straight from an artsy 1970s porno and a soundtrack of woozy love songs to create an expressionist portrait of overwhelming loneliness." - Joule Zelman, The Stranger
