| Summary |
Cathy Coppola is a neo-realistic, comedic, character-driven narrative feature. The film presents a satirical look at class, ambition and the female experience as seen from the fringes of the contemporary American independent film world. Cathy Coppola focuses on protagonist Cathy Klinkman's struggle to get her feature film made while suffering from a loss of confidence. After winning a film competition at North Seattle Community College, Cathy quickly makes her way to Los Angeles. She lands a job on a successful LA television show. She is caught up in the fast-paced lifestyle of LA and gets fired from her job after just a few months, so she heads to New York and film school. Five years later she receives her Masters Degree from New University and is again on her way to the top. She lands an interview with a renowned film producer. The interview goes well, but Cathy is surprised to discover that her job will be taking the producer's dogs on the weekends, not assisting on a film as she had hoped. And so begins a long series of mishaps, until Cathy resorts to anything to get ahead, including posing as the illegitimate daughter of Francis Ford Coppola. Suddenly her world is occupied by industry people who can't get enough of her. But where will all this lead? Will Cathy make it in the world of independent film, or will her deception be her final undoing? |
