There's no such thing as going too far in ABOUT CHERRY, a shocking new film from IFC that challenges assumptions about sexuality and pornography, while addressing the common struggle of finding one's role in life. The film stars James Franco, Heather Graham and up and comer Ashley Hinshaw as Angelina, a runaway who begins exploring the universe of San Francisco's porn industry using the moniker of Cherry.
Angelina (Ashley Hinshaw) is an 18-year-old on the verge of finishing high school, rushing to escape her broken family life. After reluctantly taking nude photos at her boyfriend's (Jonny Weston) behest, she takes the cash to skip town with her best friend (Dev Patel). Angelina gets a job cocktailing in a San Francisco strip club where she meets Frances (James Franco), an affluent lawyer who introduces her to a high-class world beyond her wildest dreams. At the same time, Angelina begins exploring San Francisco's porn industry, using the moniker Cherry, under the wing of a former performer turned adult film director (Heather Graham). But Angelina's newfound ideal lifestyle soon comes apart at the seams. ABOUT CHERRY challenges assumptions about sexuality and pornography, while addressing the common struggle of finding one's role in life.
