'Watch Me' European Arthouse Movie | Greenpoint, Brooklyn
About this Event
THIS WEEK IN GREENPOINT — 2-FOR-1 TICKETS!
Watch Me is a European-produced arthouse feature shot guerrilla-style with a tiny crew, limited shooting days, multiple locations and improvisation. Filmed in Paris and Zagreb, Croatia, Watch Me is NPG's seventh feature made using this tried-and-tested approach. The film features an international cast including up-and-coming Ukrainian actor Anastasia Kor.
"A smart, empathetic indie that surprises at every turn." – Beth Cohan, Audience Member, Madrid, Spain
“Intentionally provocative and thought-provoking”– Ken Greaves, IndyRed
“Impactful” – The Echo Chamber Podcast
“Kor delivers Isla with compassion and authenticity” – Bradley Gibson, Film Threat
Synopsis:
Isla, an international student struggling financially, reluctantly turns to webcam modelling to make ends meet. Drawing on her lifelong passion for anime and cosplay, she reinvents herself online.
Through her persona Lana Fine, Isla discovers confidence, attention, and financial freedom, but as performance and identity blur, the price of being seen may be too high.
Watch Me is an unsettling, intimate character study about identity and the cost of being seen, exploring the blurred lines of internet intimacy, fandom culture, and online commodification.
A relatable story for anyone navigating relationships, identity, and searching for connection in an increasingly online world.
Runtime: 94 minutes | Suitable for ages 18+
Join director Ivan Malekin for a post-film discussion following the August 7 and 8 screenings.
LOG ON. LOSE YOURSELF.
