The actress Sasha Grey will be presenting the feature ‘Open Windows’ by Nacho Vigalondo at the 41st Film Fest Gent On Friday 24th of October.
Since she left the adult movie world in 2009 Sasha Grey has gone on to star in HBO’s 'Entourage', published books, and deejays internationally. She starred in Steven Soderbergh’s 'The Girlfriend Experience' and penned the internationally successful novel 'The Juliette Society' in 2013 that took her on a world tour – from Russia and Italy to Ukraine, Mexico and Brazil, as well as numerous international television appearances.
‘Open Windows’
Sasha Grey stars opposite to Elijah Wood in Vigalondo’s first English feature. Wood plays Nick, the biggest fan of the actress Jill Goddard (Grey) and webmaster of jillgoddardcaught.com. Nick has won the main prize in an online contest and gets to meet his favorite actress. But then the dinner is cancelled. Through a mysterious man, Nick is given access to every last detail of Jill's life on his computer, but a simple click on the mouse leads to unforeseeable consequences.
Grey on playing the part of Jill: “The characters I look for, those that interest me, are strong women and Jill, my character in 'Open Windows' had everything I wanted." Vigalondo shot the film using webcams, tablets, mobile phones, CCTV cameras and satellites, which delivered a high-tech 21st century version of the classic paranoia film 'Rear Window'.
Tickets for the exclusive screening on Friday 24th of October at Kinepolis Ghent, with Sasha Grey in attendance, are available at www.filmfestival.be. Film Fest Gent will run from 14 to 25 October.
