Kerri Kock PASSIONS JUST LIKE MINE
Filmmaker Kerri Koch interviews a score of Los Angeles' Latino Morrissey fans--a veritable army, it turns out--and, in the process, orbits that peculiar, powerful connection that an artist can have with his or her fans. Passions starts from some simple observations -- Morrissey now lives in L.A., L.A. is predominantly Hispanic, and a large number of young Hispanics have become Morrissey/Smiths fans. They take Morrissey very seriously, recognizing in his songs their own feelings of alienation, bittersweet hope, and wistful resignation in navigating a world that doesn't always feel welcoming.
