Kabluey
San Franciscans: Scott Prendergast’s first feature film, Kabluey, will be opening at the Opera Plaza Cinema on Friday, August 1st. If you’ve seen Wholphin No 1, and therefore The Delicious, you know exactly who I’m talking about and are probably holding up you’re right hand and jubilantly making little “nang nang naang” noises right now. Kabluey, a film that Prendergast calls a “melancho-medy,” is the story of a slacker uncle who moves in with his sister-in-law and two nephews while his brother, their father, is away fighting in Iraq. I haven’t seen it yet, but have my calendar marked and no doubt that it will be just as hilarious, insightful and endearing as all of Scott’s work.
If you manage to get a spot for opening night you’ll have the added pleasure of being greeted by the director himself. And in the meantime, you can watch the trailer and find out more about the film and other screening locations here.
