Beautiful Blessed Child
written by DariA Miyeko Marinelli
Directed by reena Dutt
Zen minimalist cowboy Aimiko has never taken a road trip with their mom. Hamstring-slicing housewife Sharon has never seen nor heard of any sort of mother-daughter-child road trip. And so, these brave pioneers take to the road, driving West at, 10 miles per hour above the speed limit, with tales of cannibals, crane wives, and samurai children, buzzing over the airwaves, offering avenues of survival, all of which are only moderately helpful when Aimiko’s car radiator suddenly goes dead.This is their story. Kind of. And again. And again.
With Sharon Omi and Ima Djie and Hazel Lozano.
