“You will have an OPINION about it.”--The Huffington Post
That seems to be the consensus about Sarah-Violet Bliss and Charles Rogers' SXSW award-winning indie, Fort Bliss. The film polarized audiences at the festival last year, with some falling in love with the familiar tale of quarter-life crisis of two aimless millennials, played by newcomers Bridey Elliott and Clare McNulty. So while the critics may have already staked out a thumbs up/thumbs down position on the film, a new trailer has been released so audiences can decide for themselves. Here's the full synopsis:
Amidst quarter-life crises, Allie struggles to prepare for the Peace Corps, while Harper awaits checks from her father to fund her artistic dreams. But the two friends quickly shun responsibilities for the day when a pair of good-looking guys invite them along for a carefree Fort Tilden afternoon. As the two young women board their bikes and embark on a lengthy journey to the beach, they quickly realize that, akin to their confusing, transitioning lives, they neither know where they’re going nor how they plan to get there.
Fort Tilden hits theaters on August 14th.
