Sinopse
É 1997.

A mega-discoteca futurística Zillion é um fato e Frank passa de negociante de computadores a figura central da vida noturna de Antuérpia. Ele desfila com as mulheres mais bonitas da Bélgica e faz uma aliança com Dennis Black Magic, o rei do pornô que fornece os extras picantes. Infelizmente, belas canções também não duram muito.

Long before Kim Gordon was a cooler-than-thou multimedia artist in Body/Head, she was a cooler-than-thou multimedia artist in Sonic Youth. In the ’80s, Gordon and her bandmates were fixtures of New York’s downtown art and music scene; one regular haunt of theirs was legendary nightclub Danceteria, which served as the setting for a short film Gordon made sometime around 1985. Now, as Dangerous Minds points out, said video has surfaced online thanks to filmmaker/designer Chris Habib (a.k.a. Visitor Design). “Excellent video I found in my Sonic Youth archive,” Habib writes on the clip’s Vimeo page. “I digitized it for Kim during her [early 2000s] CLUB IN THE SHADOWS exhibition at Kenny Schachter’s old space in the West Village.”
