THE ROCK ISLAND LINE

Two reformed street-fighting broads – and former best friends – lose the one thing that might have reconnected them – their mutual friend Avery. When his mother tells him that one of his last requests was to have the two of them drive his body across country, Dix and Miranda are none too thrilled. They’re even less thrilled when they wake up the first morning of their trip to find that some low down snake in the grass stole the hearse – and the body along with it. A madcap road trip ensues as both women realize it’s time to bring their fists out of retirement.

LITTLE TRIGGERS

An anthology film set in the polluted haze of a vaguely familiar, rarely filmed Los Angeles, Little Triggers follows a woman named Rigby as she comes to look for the twin sister she never knew she had. A dyed-in-the-wool New Yorker, Rigby pinballs through four loosely connected stories of isolation, neon hang-overs, and the underbelly of Hollywood’s shiny bits.
