Gummo
Harmony Korine, the creator of 'Kids', offers a startling glimpse of the suburb of Xenia, Ohio; a world existing in the aftermath of a tornado that ravaged the community in the 1970s. It is populated by glue-sniffing, cat-killing teens, albinos, dwarfs and assorted other 'freaks' going through the motions of living in this surreal trailer-trash-meets-David Lynch world. Nick Sutton and Chloe Sevigny star along with a cast of mostly non-actors - many of whom Harmony went to school with!
