The Imperialists Are Still Alive!

First time writer/director Zeina Durra draws heavily from her personal experiences to bring to life a vibrant vision of hip, metropolitan New York City. Starring Élodie Bouchez (The Dreamlife of Angels) and set in the stylish world of the downtown art scene, the film follows a group of young recent New York arrivals as they navigate their lives amidst restless realizations about international events unfolding around them and impacting their families throughout the world. Pure and smart, confident and hilarious, The Imperialists Are Still Alive! is true independent cinema at its finest!
