“Boris, tell them what you did!” Kino Lorber has revealed an official trailer for an indie comedy called The Falling Star, the latest creation from the Belgian filmmaker duo known as Abel & Gordon – best known as Dominique Abel & Fiona Gordon. This first premiered last year at the 2023 Locarno, Telluride, Thessaloniki Film Festivals. KL is “pleased to present The Falling Star, the enchanting new caper from Dominique Abel & Fiona Gordon that parodies film noir with their signature deadpan wit and quirky, colorful whimsy.” The story follows a former activist who’s been a fugitive for 35 years, and works as a bartender now. Boris’ past finally catches up with him when a mysterious stranger appears at the bar, armed, and wanting his revenge. Starring Abel & Gordon, along with dancer Kaori Ito, Philippe Martz, and Bruno Romy.
