From Neil Gaiman ("AMERICAN GODS," CORALINE) and John Cameron Mitchell (HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH, SHORTBUS) comes a new film that appears to be a batshit crazy examination of pop culture, HOW TO TALK TO GIRLS AT PARTIES.
Enn (Tony Award-winner Alex Sharp) is a shy suburban London teenager in 1977, sneaking out with his best friends to after-hours punk parties. One night they stumble upon a bizarre gathering of sexy teenagers who seem like they are from another planet. In fact, they are from another planet, visiting Earth to complete a mysterious rite of passage. That doesn't stop Enn from falling madly in love with Zan (Elle Fanning), a beautiful and rebellious alien teenage who, despite her allegiance to her strange colony, is fascinated by Enn. Together they embark on a delirious adventure through the kinetic punk rock world of 1970s London, inadvertently setting off a series of events that will lead to the ultimate showdown of punks vs. aliens, and test the limits of how far each of them will go for true love.
A24 will be releasing HOW TO TALK TO GIRLS AT PARTIES in theatres on May 18th, until then, check out the trailer below.
