New Risha Gorig film to be featured at Jalopy on March 24

Risha Gorig’s new movie will be premiering at Jalopy Theater this month.

The Red Hook filmmaker describes her newest project as “A dark and powerful tale of the passing of existence. The fallen angels watching from another world and beyond watching human suffering and brutality. Their presence and touch are not felt.”

Risha continues: “An immediate cult classic poetic and visually stunning. Angels from above come to watch and observe humans to decide their fate, hoping to end their destructive ways. An apocalyptic reflection of the state of humanity at it’s breaking point . A true art house film.

The film is directed by Risha Gorig. The cast includes Elizabeth Ehrhardt, Sam Lefkowitz, Myra Gorig, Dave Robinson, Jacqueline Kelly and Frank Lorentz, Joe Buscoti, Kelly Doak, Lilly Parson, My D, Narada Johnson, Vahni Cantino, Robbie Giordano and Sara Davis.

Joe Buscotti of Magazine London wrote of the film: “The central plot and theme of Gods and Monsterss revolves around how everyone’s individual, every day, decisions can significantly change not only one’s own future and circumstances, but combined as humanity, can significantly change the ultimate outcome of the world. As the movie follows multiple characters through days, and years of their lives, it plays as microcosms of the world, and the begs the question of “What if?” there are higher beings and powers influencing our decisions, and whether it is for good, or evil, and are they, good or evil, and how will it ultimately affect the fate of the world. Gods and Monsterss is a must see and more than once, as Risha Gorig clearly created what is sure to be a timeless cult classic.”

The film will be shown at 8:15 on Thursday, March 24, at Jalopy Theater, 315 Columbia Street. Admission by donation, reservations at (718) 395-3214.
