a movie more vivid than almost any made in this town. Dirty, sweet and<br>
magical, the movie swirls kaleidoscopically through urban terrain. It<br>
has the hallmarks of a music video — fast motion, jump cuts, dizzying<br>
angles — but isn't just vainly edgy. It's meant to be a guerrilla<br>
film-on-the-fly, latticed like the broken windshield of perception.<br>
The movie has a sort of mantra — at least twice, characters offer the<br>
greeting "Each day's better than the next." Here is a two-faced piece<br>
of wisdom indeed. Does it mean life is getting ever-better, like it<br>
sounds, or ever-worse, like it says? Is "<span>Fix</span>" a movie about hope or<br>
catastrophe, the best of times or the worst of times?<br>
That's for you to decide after seeing the movie. Catch it at the<br>
Brooklyn Film Festival, see it at another festival near you, beg your<br>
local arthouse to play it, do what you have to do, but see it. Because<br>
you just gotta." -Joshua Tanzer <a href="http://offoffoff.com/" target="_blank">offoffoff.com</a><br>

"Brash, cool and energetic ... a wild ride." - Variety<br>
<br>
"A bold new style and talent" -Oliver Stone<br>
<br>
"Ruspoli has succeeded in creating a film that not only compliments<br>
Los Angeles' multi-faceted landscape, but meditates on it. While <span>FIX</span><br>
is everything one would hope - a frenetic, Odyssey-like journey<br>
through an underbelly of drug culture and addiction, it's when the<br>
film reaches moments of silence that its true voice speaks clear,<br>
deeply exploring notions of family, loss, and ultimately redemption."<br>
- Daniel Casey, Slamdance Programmer<br>
<br>
"<span>Fix</span> has the gritty energy of 'Go', the speedy with of 'Arrested<br>
Development' and a magnificent visual panache." - IndieWire<br>
<br>
"Funny, sad, dangerous, endearing; all the hallmarks of a big-money<br>
blockbuster are here, delivered with an effortless reality and<br>
spontaneity that no budget can buy ..." - M. Bradley, <a href="http://edhat.com/" target="_blank">edhat.com</a><br>

Synopsis:<br>
Racing across Los Angeles in one, unwieldy day, documentary filmmakers<br>
Bella and Milo race from Beverly Hills to Watts and places in between<br>
to get Milo's brother Leo from jail to rehab before 8pm, or Leo goes<br>
to prison for three years.<br>
<br>
<br>
A story inspired by true events, the trio documents their trip from a<br>
suburban police station in Calabasas through mansions in Beverly<br>
Hills, East LA chop-shops, rural wastelands, and housing projects in<br>
Watts as they attempt to raise the $5,000 required to get Leo into the<br>
rehab clinic.<br>
<br>
<br>
Along the way encountering dozens of colorful characters, each with<br>
their own anomalous perspective on Leo's larger than life personality<br>
and style, and each with their own excuse for why they cannot help<br>
out. In the end, it may take a drug deal to get the necessary funds<br>
for rehab.<br>-- <br>__________<br>Tao Ruspoli<br>Director, Mangusta & LAFCO productions <br><a href="http://www.taoruspoli.com" target="_blank">www.taoruspoli.com</a><br><br>+ Please add FIX to your Netflix queue! +<br>
