In person: filmmaker Gregg Araki.
“L.A.’s like nowhere. Everyone who lives here is lost.” From the opening Slowdive music cue to its outrageous finale, Gregg Araki’s long under-screened queer cult classic reverberates with rage and sexual frustration throughout, though it’s tempered, naturally, by a healthy dose of 1990s ennui. Like an episode of “Beverly Hills, 90210 on acid” or “California’s version of Kids,” Nowhere’s Los Angeles-dwelling cast of dozens—including an actual Baywatch star and a character named Jujyfruit—exchange sexual partners, discuss addiction, party their brains out, and grapple with an alien invasion accompanied by the era-essential tunes of Hole, Blur, Portishead, and Massive Attack.
