Belmont, Mass. - Belmont World Film’s seventh annual international films series, “The Other Side” wraps up at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday April 13, with the New England premiere of “Irina Palm” at the Studio Cinema in Belmont (376 Trapelo Road). The British, German, French, Luxembourgian, and Belgian co-production stars rock and roll diva Marianne Faithfull, and features English actress Jenny Agutter (“An American Werewolf in London,” “Walkabout”). The film is Rated R for strong sexual content, nudity and language.
Directed by Sam Garbarski (Rashevski’s Tango), the film premiered at the 2007 Berlin Film Festival. In the film Marianne Faithfull stars as a middle-aged widow desperate to raise money for her grandson’s medical bills. After numerous potential employers tell her that she is not qualified for any jobs, she wanders hopelessly through London’s SOHO district, until she sees a sign for a hostess job in a sex club, changing her life in ways she never expected.
