Lunch Ladies

J.M. LOGAN / Clarissa JACOBSON

USA2017 19min Asian Premiere

Synopsis

Fraternal twin sisters, Seretta and LouAnne Burr, have shared a miserable existence as high school lunch ladies. This year is going to be different: The twin’s Cheesy Burger Bites recipe is the Grand Prize Winner of Johnny Depp's Cook for Kid's Charity Event!

Program Note

Fraternal twin sisters working as lunch ladies in a high school are not appreciated by school and a laughing stock of students for their terrible cooking. The sisters are uplifted when their recipe is selected for a charity dinner hosted by actor Johnny Depp, with whom the sisters are obsessed. Using a crisis that they face just in time as a steppingstone, they develop a new menu. Using Hollywood star Johnny Depp and one of his films Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007) as ingredients, these “losers” mix them into a hard-gore comedy. Their story of victory surely is witty. (JUNG You-me)
