Mahida's Extra Key to Heaven
by RUSSELL DAVIS Directed by GUS KAIKKONEN Featuring: ALIAH WHITMORE STEVEN MICHAEL WALTERS A young American painter encounters a wary Iranian college student waiting for a ferry that will not come until the next day. He respectfully offers her shelter for the night at his mother’s house nearby. This simple offer triggers a chain of events and a confrontation which threatens to engulf them all. Gracefully plumbing this collision of cultures, Mahida’s Extra Key to Heaven speaks in a language painfully current and eloquent, unique and haunting. |
