A self-identified "genre-fluid" film, in UNDERGROUND ORANGE Michael Taylor Jackson plays a Californian backpacker who becomes entangled in a polyamorous relationship with a gang of young actors who plot to kidnap the U.S. ambassador to Argentina. The film explores dichotomies as they appear in politics, identity, and queerness, blending tones, mashing up genre beats, and infusing the everyday with imagination, balancing thoughtfulness and humor with a cheeky cleverness all its own.
