New York International Latino Film Festival 2011

In Hollywood, from studio executive to homeless actor, struggling artists and up-and-comers compromise their identities and souls in search of their big-time dreams. Funny, realistic and heartfelt, “Hollywood Whores” uses non-actors and improvisational techniques in the vein of John Cassevetes to explore the seamy underside of the land of dreams.

Upon taking her vows to become a nun, Sister Sarah is abused, brainwashed and drugged into submission by the corrupt clergy. On the verge of death, she receives a message from God, telling her to take vengeance on all those who did her wrong. Armed with God's will and an arsenal of big guns, she dispenses Judgment Day on her former tormentors. When the church hires the merciless motorcycle gang the "Los Muertos" to track down and kill her, they soon realize that this sister is one bad mother!

Melanie is a reclusive young woman who copes with the recent suicide of her mother by constructing a life-size doll to keep her company. At first the doll, called Mor, appears to be a harmless novelty. But as Melanie’s grasp on reality slips away, she begins to project her mother’s voice onto Mor and the delusional relationship becomes more and more antagonistic and bizarrely co-dependent. When Melanie meets and connects with the handsome Dukken, it seems a ray of light has entered her life. Until Mor convinces Melanie that she must kill Dukken.
