THE MOMENT: Charli xcx's Hyper Pop Mockumentary

A rising pop star navigates the complexities of fame and industry pressure while preparing for her arena tour debut.

Two showings in the Luna Outdoor:
7pm Thursday, March 5th
7pm Friday, March 6th

A flashy, tongue-in-cheek hyper-pop mockumentary, The Moment is Charli xcx’s creative reflection on her own meteoric success with brat. Directed and co-written by “360” music video director Aidan Zamiri in his feature debut, the film has a stylishly effortless rhythm and a uniquely self-aware, ironic sense of humor. Charli xcx plays an exaggeratedly manic version of herself, surrounded by a cast of characters that mirror both the friends and foes of the era. Hailey Gates and Alexander Skarsgård personify near-diametrically opposed influences in Charli xcx’s dynamic career; pieces in the grand scheme of brat’s enduring cultural power.

Behind the satire and Charli xcx’s celebrity is an earnest and heartfelt expression of the weight of success, the price of legacy, and the fight to preserve artistic integrity. The Moment is a film for fans and newcomers alike — a lively, current, dazzling capsule of one of the most iconic artists of our time.
