MEDIA RELEASE
Director G.B. Hajim’s critically-acclaimed animated lesbian science fiction rock musical “Strange Frame” will be screened 7 p.m. Feb. 15 at Palace Theater in Hilo and Feb. 16 in Honokaa.
The animated sci-fi story explores the theme of the transformative power of love between two women. Dramatically rendered in rich, colorful animation, the film brings viewers into a world of space pirates, indentured slaves and genetic mutations — infused with music throughout, to create a dreamlike tale unlike anything they’ve ever seen.
The all-star voice cast includes Tim Curry (The Rocky Horror Picture Show), Claudia Black (TV’s “Stargate SG-1,†“90210â€), Ron Glass (TV’s “Firefly,†“Barney Millerâ€), Juliet Landau (TV’s “Green Lantern: The Animated Seriesâ€), Tara Strong (TV’s “Ultimate Spider-Man,†“My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magicâ€), George Takei (Star Trek franchise), Cree Summer (TV’s “The Spectacular Spider-Man,†“A Different Worldâ€), Claudia Christian (TV’s “Babylon 5â€) and Dawnn Lewis (TV’s “Futurama,†“A Different Worldâ€).
After its world premiere at Sci-Fi London: The International Festival of Science Fiction and Fantastic Film, it won the “Best Feature Film†award at the 2012 Dragon Con.
Set at the end of the 28th century, the human race has long since abandoned a desolate earth. In order to survive, humanity has been using genetic engineering to adapt to otherworld environments, to the point where changing one’s skin color or gender has become commonplace.
On the moon Ganymede, saxophonist Parker and guitarist Naia develop a close relationship. The two embark on their new relationship and form a new band — but they also must fight for their freedom from the evil Mig.
“Strange Frame” has a runtime of 98 minutes and is not rated.
It is an Island Planet One Production and was produced and directed Papaikou filmmaker G.B. Hajim.
