"Ramzi Abed's new film is a mindbending meditation on Hollywood self-destruction, angelic interventions, and psychedelic string theory," said Matt Pizzolo, President of Halo-8. "Ramzi has pushed the creative and dramatic envelope even farther than he did in his surrealist THE DEVIL'S MUSE, taking his unique brand of bold, inventive, sociopathic filmmaking to the next level. We're honored that he's chosen once again to take Halo-8 down the rabbit hole with him."

"I'm ecstatic that Halo-8 will be releasing my new feature IN A SPIRAL STATE, because they stand behind brave films and dangerous content," said Abed. "The film is exceptionally unique and transgressive, and to have the amazing folks at Halo-8 distributing it makes it just that much stronger. To join them again with my new film is a truly wonderful thing! Welcome to the New Wave, everybody!"

"IN A SPIRAL STATE" portrays Los Angeles through the eyes of an angel named Daya (Ofri Fuchs) who's become mesmerized by the city's interconnected yet utterly isolated inhabitants, particularly its struggling and flawed artists, frauds, and drug addicts. Of particular interest to Daya is suicidal actress Maya (Juliana Fine) and murderous femme fatales Marlena (Bianca Barnett), Danielle (Lizzy Strain), and Honey (Elissa Dowling). An angel named Gadi (Adam Meir) tries to prevent Daya from interfering in their lives, but he is unable to stop the empathetic Daya as she is drawn into the frightening and twisted machinations of the city's underbelly. Mixing Kabbalah, quantum mechanics, struggles of human existence, and theories of our own spiral galaxy, visionary filmmaker Ramzi Abed weaves an urban and divine love story in this hallucinatory thriller that pulls audiences into a world of drug overdoses, organ thieves, and metaphysical mystery.

Synopsis : In the city of Los Angeles, millions of lives intersect everyday, but each individual is still isolated from the whole. A number of strange incidents occur to four men and four women, just as their own lives begin to spiral out of control. Surrounded by con artists, frauds, drug addicts, and homeless people, a story starts to form in a screenwriter's head. Little does he know, his characters seem to have come to life as well. Things takes a surprise turn, as these LA residents find themselves locked into a mystery together. While relating to quantum mechanics, our own spiral galaxy, and the struggle of human existence, an urban love story grows out of the vine of disconnection.

French Release : 2010-01-01 | US Release : 2009-09-29
