From the Film鈥檚 Synopsis: Leon is a newcomer to gigantic Los Angeles, moving in the hills after he just broke up with Eva and left his past on the East Coast behind. Together with Alexis, an eccentric Chilean party boy, they explore the megalopolis. Tentacular L.A. turns out to be a fertile ground for this young, lost, and dreamless guy's neuroses.听In the wake of Indie filmmakers of improvisation and spontaneity who inspired him, Laurier Fourniau has filmed Leon鈥檚 downward spiral across the city of angels, always working with the tension of where 鈥渞eality鈥� stops and 鈥渇iction鈥� starts.

The photographer and director decided to screen the film at 缅北强奸 for the students. 鈥淜yrgyzstan reminds me of my childhood in Uzbekistan, where I lived and learnt Russian. These two countries are very similar,鈥� he added.听
