35 Days screens Thursday, Nov. 10 at 9:15pm at The Tivoli Theater as part of this year’s St. Louis International Film Festival. Director Chris Grega and members of the cast and crew will be in attendance. Ticket information can be found Here.
The latest from longtime Sliff favorite Chris Grega (“Rhineland,” “Game of the Year,” “Sound of Nothing”), “35 Days” is a mockumentary riff on a subject that the local filmmaker knows all too well: the scramble to complete a movie on a tight deadline and nonexistent budget. St. Louis indie film director Eric Cutter (Travis Estes) — an exaggerated but sympathetic take on Grega — decides to complete his long-abandoned third feature, “Gunman,” as a tribute to his friend Sam Harrison (Steven J. Heffernan), an actor in the film who recently died. To accomplish the task, Cutter must reunite his quarrelsome cast and crew to finish the movie that derailed their hopes and dreams a decade earlier.

Game Of The Year is a mockumentary written and directed by local filmmaker Chris Grega (Amphetamine, Rhineland). The film follows a rag-tag group of guys who put together a team to compete on the reality TV show called “Game of the Year” in which teams square off against each other in role-playing games. The winning team gets to run the host’s new gaming company for one year. What ensues is a special brand of humor and a film that is either ridiculously revealing and hilariously nostalgic, depending on the viewer’s own history with role-playing.
