      Flat Is Beautiful

      Released Jul 15, 1999 50m Comedy Drama List
      Reviews The tomboyish Taylor (Sammy Steel) lives with her single mother (Jennifer Reeder) and their gay male roommate (Mark Ewert) in working-class Milwaukee. On the verge of adolescence, Taylor is uncertain about the world of adult sexuality and gender roles. Experimental filmmaker Sadie Benning partially shot the film with a 1980s toy camera that gives her images a deliberately stylized look that's further enhanced by the cartoon-like paper masks the characters wear at all times.
