The Sisters of Gion
Directed by Ileana Pietrobruno
A riff on Mizoguchi's 1936 classic. Penny and Jade are university students. Jade never goes to class because she prefers cruising with her heavy-metal boyfriend. Penny regularly attends French class because she is ambitious to become a European snob. She also has her eyes on the professor's antiques and jewels. While Penny is an opportunist who only appreciates men for their money, Jade is too stupid to know the value of money. In the end, both girls lose out.
