‘Peas And Carrots’ On Menu At Upcoming Dances With Films Festival — New York

Evan Oppenheimer’s narrative feature Peas and Carrots will open the third annual Dances With Films – NYC, one of more than a dozen world premieres at the bicoastal festival.

The full lineup announced today includes more than 75 feature-length narrative and documentary films, pilots, and shorts (scroll for the full list). The New York City event, which runs from December 5-8, is a companion to Dances With Films – LA, which celebrated its 27 years in June.

Peas and Carrots stars Kirrilee Berger, Jordan Bridges, and Amy Carlson in a story of “a teenage girl in New York who is the child of a couple that was one-hit wonders in the 90s. She also travels in a bizarre alternate reality, where everybody only says three words: ‘Peas and Carrots.’” Members of the Ramones, Sonic Youth, Richard Hell and the Voidoids, and Guster all contributed to the movie, according to a release, both with new music in the score and (in some cases) with appearances on screen.
