Locationista

Invalid Date

What happens when three women, each a "loser" by the world's standards, collide in a house they all hate for different reasons? Locationista is an off-beat dramedy about Nina, a nomad location scout with "roots floating flat in the air," Vika, a control-freak producer on the verge of a breakdown, and Lina, a fiery French homeowner abandoned after nine years of marriage. From anti-corporate manifestos and "shamanic dips" in green lakes to the harsh reality of indie filmmaking where peanuts and passion are the only currency, this film is a journey through the messy, absurd, and beautiful glory of finding oneself when there is no closure in sight. A visual experiment in embracing chaos, it explores the mathematician's paradox of human emotions—proving that when logic fails, shared vulnerability creates a new path.
