‘Alpha Gang,’ Director David and Nathan Zellner
After two decades of cult projects at Sundance Fest (Kumiko, The Treasure Hunter, Sasquatch Sunset), the Zellner brothers may be poised for a more splashy launch on the Lido.
Alpha Gang, described as an eccentric alien invasion comedy, wrapped in Hungary last July.
Oscar winner Cate Blanchett stars as Alpha One, leader of an extraterrestrial strike force that is disguised in human form as a 1950s leather-clad biker gang.
