Love Witch, The

“Love spells never work the way you think they will...” Cinema Nova presents a special retrospective season of 2016 indie darling THE LOVE WITCH, a delirious, visually luxurious ode to 60s Technicolor horror with a sly feminist edge.
Elaine (Samantha Robinson), a beautiful young witch, is determined to find a man to love her. In her gothic Victorian apartment, she makes spells and potions, and then picks up men and seduces them. However, her spells work too well, leaving her with a string of hapless victims. When she finally meets the man of her dreams, her desperation to be loved will drive her to the brink of insanity and murder.
Following each screening will be an Nova-exclusive prerecorded Q&A with write/director Anna Biller, so be sure to stick around after the movie.
