From this chance encounter, an unlikely connection is formed. They spend twenty-four hours together drifting to and from diners, parks, art galleries, and parties. Inflected with melancholy and hopefulness, Aaron Katz's second feature is a fully realized work of truly independent American cinema.Dance Party, USA (2007):In Dance Party, USA, Katz's impressionistic and audacious debut, apathetic teens Jessica (Anna Kavan) and Gus (Cole Pensinger) connect for a fleeting moment at a 4th of July party.
