MIFF | 8° Film Festival Internazionale di Milano - Eagles in the Chicken Coop / Brent Florence / Alex Holdridge, Bruce Abbott, Cameron Bender, Camille Chen, Chloe Snyder Eagles in the Chicken Coop Alex Holdridge, Bruce Abbott, Cameron Bender, Camille Chen, Chloe Snyder
A team of Investigative Documentarians sets out to follow the making of late night, made-for-television Mature movies, to take a look inside mainstream Hollywood film practices and sensibilities at their lowest. Along the way they meet Armondo Jones and Bill Williams, two artists and life-long best friends who have been hired to write, direct and co-produce their first ever feature film: “The Lone Rancher”, a soft-core epic, to be distributed on cable television. The documentarists follow them and their crew, as they struggle against the system to maintain their vision of their film and to protect the important love story they believe the movie can provide. It’s art versus commerce. Sex versus love. It’s a battle Armondo and Bill believe is vital, where all good things are at stake, not only for themselves as artists, but for any person throughout the world, including you, who may someday see “The Lone Rancher”.
