Synopsis
The Final Exit of the Disciples of Ascensia
After receiving a VHS tape claiming she's a disciple of an alien species known as the "True Mothers", Amy joins a local UFO cult, donning the name Celisse and befriending a number of other members while under the watch of the cult's peculiar founder, Ascensia.
Theory of Achievement
This short film was packaged on video with Hartley's featurette "Surviving Desire." It affectionately examines the lives of a group of "young, middle-class, white, college-educated, unskilled, broke, drunk" Brooklynites who would love to make something of their lives -- assuming they can pay the rent first.
