“Going Down in La La Land”
| WHAT: | The month of February in Miami usually consists of parties and food festivals, but don’t forget the popular Miami Gay and Lesbian Film Festival’s HBO Latin America “GLOW” (Gays & Lesbians On Wednesdays) movie series. The Miami Gay & Lesbian Film Festival is excited to be presenting the screening of “Going Down in La La Land.” This will be the final screening of the inaugural GLOW Miami movie screening series, as the Festival prepares for their 14th Annual Miami Gay & Lesbian Film Festival, which is held on April 27-May 6, 2012. Movie fanatics are invited to attend the pre-GLOW reception where guests will enjoy cocktails provided by Chambord Vodka and Herradura Tequila, while nibbling on a variety of hors d’ oeuvres provided by The Palace.
Going Down in La La Land Based on the novel by Andy Zeffer, this film is a candid, sexy and outrageously funny outlook on what an actor can and will do in order to survive in Hollywood. After a rocky start at a dead-end job, young, handsome and ambitious Adam accepts a position as a production assistant for a gay porn company. Will Adam get trapped in this seedy underworld, or does he find a Hollywood movie with a happy ending?
Filmmaker Casper Andreas will be hosting a Q&A session via Skype directly after the film.
