The Plagiarists, dir. Peter Parlow, USA 2019, 76 min., English
Currently not available
Co-written by James N. Kienitz Wilkins and Robin Schavoir, Peter Parlow’s sophomore feature is at once a hilarious send-up of low-budget American indie filmmaking and a probing inquiry into race, relationships, and the social uncanny. A young novelist and her cinematographer boyfriend are waylaid by a snowstorm on their way to visit a friend in upstate New York and are taken in by the kindly yet enigmatic Clip, who puts them up for the night. But an accidental discovery months later recasts in an unnerving light what had seemed like an agreeable evening, stoking resentments both latent and not-so-latent. Exhilaratingly intelligent and distinctively shot on a vintage TV-news camera, The Plagiarists is a work whose provocations are inseparable from its pleasures.
