ELLIE AND ABBIE (and Ellie’s Dead Aunt)
Let’s keep the Mardi Gras celebrations going. Monica Zanetti’s charming, queer coming-of-age comedy, ELLIE AND ABBIE (and Ellie’s Dead Aunt) is now streaming on Netflix! This was Monica Zanetti’s debut feature, about Ellie; a teen working up the courage to ask her classmate Abbie to the school formal with the help of her dead aunt, a lesbian who died in the 80s who has shown up as a “Fairy Godmother” to dish out advice, whether Ellie wants it or not. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n51X557KHXk
