Sundance movie about transgendered prostitutes filmed entirely with an Iphone.

 

How One Director Shot His Buzzy New Movie Using iPhones

 

When Sean Baker decided to make a movie about a pair of transgendered prostitutes, he knew he wouldn’t have the budget to buy a fancy camera. So instead, he reached for his iPhone.

 

In the new film Tangerine — which is making its debut at this year’s Sundance Film Festival — Baker tracks a hectic Christmas Eve in the unofficial red-light district of Los Angeles, a stretch of Santa Monica Boulevard not far from his home. He spent months developing a story that follows a closeted cab driver named Razmik (Karren Karagulian) and two transgender prostitutes and best friends named Alexandra (Mya Taylor) and Sin-Dee (Kiki Kitana Rodriguez). Considering the movie’s deeply uncommercial premise and very limited budget, Baker knew he would have to get extra creative to make the film happen at all.
