From Pitchfork:
From Sonic Nurse to…”sadistic doctor”? That’s the big screen turn we can expect out of Kim Gordon in the previously reported, forthcoming short film from director/screenwriter Alia Raza.
Pure White Light, as they’re calling it, has been in production most of this month and also stars Lavender Diamond‘s Becky Stark, OK Go‘s Damian Kulash, and writer and fashion maven Liz Goldwyn.
According to Raza, “The movie is about self-identity in the age of aesthetics and consumerism. It tells the story of a woman’s journey from insecure, lonely ingenue to jaded sophisticate.”
That story was penned by Miranda July, who met Raza through a Me and You and Everyone We Know producer and suggested the budding director choose a short story from one of July’s collections and adapt it for the screen.
