Snow job: Gordy Hoffman's directorial debut at Locarno
The only US entry in the video competition at the Locarno International Film Festival, A Coat of Snow, is the directorial preem of Love, Liza writer Gordy Hoffman. The producers' press release describes it: "Set in present-day Los Angeles, dramatic story deals with a bachelorette party unraveling over the course of a night until the bride disappears. Digital feature had Hoffman casting unknowns to maintain the look of a home video, followed by an extensive script workshop stretching over a 3-year period. Actors operated the camera throughout the shoot, with final edit containing 29 cuts and no music. Harrowing finale is a 12-minute shot, captured in one take."
