Bio Clip Coming Soon

ELISE

Elise Giannasi is a 9-year New Yorker who looks so remarkably like Sarah Palin she had to get her haircut just to avoid being accosted on the street. Oh yeah, and she is brilliant. By day she spends her time in the corporate world, financing and strategizing. By night, she spends her time getting ready to do it all again the next day. She is very interesting. Elise also enjoys playing dress up and taming her favorite feline, who is part bobcat and uses her as a human jungle gym. Elise is Italian with a temper to match and enjoys all things tomato-based and cheese-covered. She is also southern and considers herself a collard greens-enthusiast. One day she will own an organic farm in the middle of nowhere but will make sure she has internet so that she can still watch movie clips.

COMEDIC
Iceland

101 REYKJAVIK

Baltasar Komakur
Victoria Abril, Hilmir Snaer Guonason

2000. Iceland. Subtitled. 88 mins. (Comedic, Slice Of Life-ish, Fanciful) Hylnur is too old to live with his mother, and Lola is too old for him. But in this lovely, fanciful coming of age comedy and romance--nobody is too old or too young for what they eventually get. For his mother and Lola is a gift only he can give, and for Hylnur it is a going away lesson in the really strange paths life can take. And more than anything, this is another stunning and surprising role for the amazing Victoria Abril.
