Directors Severin Fiala & Veronika Franz in person
The psychological horror film Goodnight Mommy is a twisted and
fantastical take on the home invasion thriller. In the heat of the
summer lays an isolated house in the Austrian countryside, where
nine-year-old twin brothers await their mother’s return after cosmetic
surgery. She’s recovering from an accident that has left her face
covered in bandages, unrecognizable to her precocious sons. During her
recovery her temper runs short with the boys, her behavior is
domineering and her punishments turn harsh. The boys begin to suspect
she isn’t really their mother...

The Gilded AgeOpening: Saturday, September 12, 2015 6:00pm - 9:00pm
Thinkspace Gallery
6009 W Washington Blvd, Culver City, CA 90232
The Gilded Age presents three exceptional artists – two of whom
are hand-picked by the inimitable Horkey – whose respective work,
though entirely unique and contemporary, recalls many of the
sensibilities shared by the late 19th and early 20th century return to
craftsmanship, narrative and ornamentation. Particularly relevant given
our entrenchment in an age of digital reign and impermanent culture, The Gilded Age betrays a nostalgic yearning for the maximalism of the human hand.
Opening: Saturday, September 12, 4pm-7pm
