Description

Based on a true San Francisco story, and filmed in SF and Oakland. “I wanted to be one of the wild ones, the ones who broke free.” These words begin the semi-autobiographical tale of Catherine’s (Elizabeth Rice) journey in 1968, into the heart of the sexual revolution in San Francisco. She dances naked in the Paradise Club, and quickly descends into the club’s dark underworld while America is at the height of social revolution: political assassinations, Vietnam and anti-war protests. Written and directed by Carolyn Cavallero, who lived in San Francisco in the late 1960’s and graduated from UC Berkeley. Co-starring Eric Roberts, Evan Williams, Nicole Arianna Fox, and Tonya Kay. –Jeff M. Giordano
