ALICE IN MOVIELAND
by Christina Kotlar Turchyn
Inspired by true events
An impressionable, tech-savvy young woman falls into life’s rabbit hole at the dawn of the moving picture industry, testing the devilishly-guarded bastion of male chauvinism. As the bourgeois-repressed social order opened up at the turn of the century, super-tech chick, Alice Guy, arrives on the scene, influencing the likes of Picasso and Braque, impressing inventors and entrepreneurs, while launching an upside down, topsy-turvy, breaking-the-rules approach to life’s absurdities and scenarios.
