Presented as part of programmer Vincenzo Nappi’s Enter the Videodrome series, the demented RATS! will be preceded by the short film Sweet Juices by Will Suen and Sejon Im
RATS!
Carl Fry, Maxwell Nalevansky / 2025 / United States / 85′ / English
It’s 2007 in Pfresno, Texas. Raphael is in county jail following an arrest for graffiti. He’s a good kid. It’s just graffiti. So you can’t blame Raphael for the events that unfold after his arrest. He’s not responsible for the sting operation, Pflophaus’s new mixtape, Officer Williams and her delusional suspicions, the meth pipes, the FBI, the rich kids with nothing to lose, Mateo, Larry the pig, all the knives, the local aspiring TV newswoman, the plutonium deal gone wrong, or anyone who may or may not die due to that deal turning sour. None of it is Raphael’s fault, but it is his problem.
SWEET JUICES
Will Suen, Sejon Im / 2023 / Australia / 15′ / English with French subtitles
A city of rabid food connoisseurs is brought to its knees when Chinese takeaway becomes the supreme currency, commanding more power than sex, drugs, and techno.
