We previously reported that The Tribeca Film Festival would premiere Andrew Paquin’s film, “Open House”. The list now includes films done by three of our True Blood cast members. So, in addition to Open House with Stephen and Anna, they list Metropia, where included in the cast is Alexander Skarsgård and his father Stellan.
The popular fest, which is branching out to include an online element this year with Tribeca Film Festival Virtual (click here to learn more), runs from April 21 through May 2, 2010. If previous years are any indication, we can expect at least another handful of genre films to join those mentioned here when the balance of the schedule is revealed on March 15th.
Metropia
Directed by Tarik Saleh, written by Fredrik Edin, Stig Larsson, and Tarik Saleh (Sweden, Denmark, Norway) – New York Premiere. In the year 2024, all of Europe is united by a vast web of underground railways, populated by an army of downtrodden worker bees. When one such cog starts hearing voices and encounters a femme fatale shampoo model who seems to hold some answers, he finds himself unearthing a vast Orwellian conspiracy in this visually arresting animated noir. With the voices of Vincent Gallo, Juliette Lewis, Udo Kier, Stellan Skarsgård, and Alexander Skarsgård. A Tribeca Film release.
Open House
Directed and written by Andrew Paquin (USA) – World Premiere. Brian Geraghty gives a haunting performance as prim and taciturn David, forced for years to watch over his sexually predatory partner Lila (Tricia Helfer) and her violent urges. David longs for human connection and a less violent existence, and when a would-be victim becomes a chance at redemption, he is torn between his humanity and the only life he’s ever known. The writer/director’s sister, Anna Paquin, and her “True Blood” co-star Stephen Moyer, also appear in the film.
