Philly Spotlight: “DINNER” by Aleksandra Svetlichnaya
POST UPDATE 10/31/2015 : See Full Movie – Then read interview below with filmmaker: One of the best parts of writing a film blog is that literally every post, I learn something new – sometimes it’s something I have sketchy details about that’s made clearer.

So that's pretty cool.
