MIFF | 8° Film Festival Internazionale di Milano - Fix / Tao Ruspoli / Olivia Wilde, Shawn Andrews, Tao Ruspoli, Dedee Pfeifer, Megalyn Echikunwoke Fix Olivia Wilde, Shawn Andrews, Tao Ruspoli, Dedee Pfeifer, Megalyn Echikunwoke
In one, unwieldy day, documentary filmmakers Bella (Olivia Wilde) and Milo (Tao Ruspoli) race from Beverly Hills to Watts to get Milo's brother, Leo (Shawn Andrews) from jail to rehab before 8 p.m., or Leo will be imprisoned for three years. Inspired by true events, the trio documents their trip from a suburban police station through Beverly Hills mansions, East L.A. chop-shops, rural wastelands and housing-projects as they attempt to raise the $5,000 required to get Leo into the rehab.
