"We're here to fulfill our purpose." Altered Innocence has released an official trailer for an indie film titled A Dim Valley, which is described as "part hilarious stoner comedy and part transcendental meditation on mysticism and love." This originally premiered at the Oxford Film Festival and Raindance Film Festival last year, arriving in theaters in July. A curmudgeonly biologist and his slacker graduate assistants muddle their way through a summer research project. Deep in the Appalachian woods, they encounter a group of mystical backpackers who change their lives in mysterious ways. Starring Zach Weintraub, Whitmer Thomas, Robert Longstreet, Rachel McKeon, Rosalie Lowe, and Feathers Wise. This is all quite strange and definitely seems like they took some psychedelics. I like the quote at the end because I'm also very confused. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Brandon Colvin's A Dim Valley, on YouTube (via ScreenAnarchy): A curmudgeonly biologist...

It’s not every day that an avant-garde/experimental picture both makes its way to theaters and also has a relatively modest marketing push behind it. Released by Factory 25, and eyeing both a Blu-ray release for the feature itself as well as a vinyl release for its great Keiichi Suzuki score, For The Plasma is just that rare type of art comedy that will hopefully go from the festival world (it played festivals like BAMcinemaFest as well as IndieLisboa) to find an audience in general release.
The debut feature from Bingham Bryant and Kyle Molzan, For The Plasma introduces us to Helen (Rosalie Lowe), a woman living in a remote cabin in Maine forest whose job it is to keep an eye on potential forest fires. However, while looking at numerous monitors all day, she has uncovered something highly profitable within these feeds. When her friend Charlie (Anabelle LeMieux) arrives,...

Keiichi Suzuki's score informs how we meander through the landscapes filmed dream-like by Christopher Messina (Dear Renzo). Charlie (Anabelle LeMieux) arrives at a house in Maine where a pal from the past, Helen (Rosalie Lowe), has a job monitoring forest fires and where she also miraculously predicts shifts in global finance.

“For the Plasma” immediately throws its viewer into the deep end. Unique beyond measure, its mumblecore, indie affectation is contradicted by a bold ambition in the form of big, complex ideas which don’t always make sense in reality, but pave the way for some interesting insights. Helen (Rosalie Lowe), who sits in a small house […]

Matías Piñeiro, Jean-Luc Godard, Shakespeare, Hermia & Helena, Kobo Abe, Edgar Allan Poe, Marcel Proust, David Lynch's Mulholland Drive, the Brothers Grimm, plus Jake Perlin, Andrew Adair, and Tyler Brodie of the Cinema Conservancy haunted my conversation with For The Plasma writer/co-director Bingham Bryant.
Helen (Rosalie Lowe) monitors forest fires while living in a house in Maine and invites her acquaintance Charlie (Anabelle LeMieux) to keep her company and be her assistant. Deadpan Mainer lighthouse keeper Herbert (Tom Lloyd), a dead bat, four living crabs, a couple of Japanese businessmen (Ryohei Hoshi and James Han), and a few phone calls pop up to structure the narrative flow in Bryant and Kyle Molzan's Poe-tic For The Plasma.
"It is very tale-like because it creates just a suspension because of the loop.
