SYNOPSIS

Twin sisters, Beatrice and Zoe, are in love with Ray, a philosopher-bank robber
driven by visions of the end the world. Though Beatrice and Ray are married, Ray elopes with free-spirited Zoe and hides out in a motel after a bank heist.

Meanwhile, Beatrice files for divorce as two enigmatic entities from the Bardo
interzones take interest in their fates in Antero Alli's tenth underground film, a heady cocktail chaser of crime, metaphysics, and amour fou.

ABOUT THE FILMMAKER

FLAMINGOS is Finnish-born Antero Alli's tenth underground feature fiction movie (since 1993). Though none of his works have seen wide theatrical release ("I don't have a mainstream bone in my body"), they continue garnering critical praise for their originality, insight, and depth of imagination. Alli personally screens his films in rare, limited runs on the west coast arthouse circuit and makes them available on dvd. Antero resides in Berkeley with his wife, the singer/composer Sylvi Alli.
