IMITATION GIRL is the lyrical telling of a mysterious being who arrives on Earth in the shape of a young woman. Taken in by Iranian immigrants, a brother and sister living in the American Southwest, Imitation forms an understanding of the strange species around her, and as she learns more about her new body and her companions, she comes to appreciate the beauty and the sadness of her new world. At the same time, Julianna, Imitation's world-wise, world-weary earthly double, knows both glitz and grit working as an entertainer in New York City, where her fraying life and relationships now threaten her preparations for the dream audition that might finally set her on a happier path. On learning of Julianna's existence, Imitation heads to New York, where only by sacrificing themselves to each other can the cosmic twins complete their portrait of a woman and find fulfillment.

| Eye for FilmJennie KermodeBeautifully filmed, thoughtful and dreamlike, Imitation Girl is an impressive piece of work. |
| HorrorNews.netMarisa MirabalImitation Girl is a gorgeous film that dissects the yin and yang nature of finding and ultimately accepting one's self. |
| F This Movie!Patrick BromleyThe only thing better than a movie with a Lauren Ashley Carter performance is a movie with two. |
| HeyUGuysBen RobinsAlthough the higher order thinking that sits just below the surface throughout isn't always entirely clear, it remains, for the most part, emotionally gripping. |
| Film InquiryAmanda MazzilloImitation Girl is an interesting character study focusing on women asking the questions: Who am I? and What do I have to show for my life? |
| User ReviewCubbiAngelie MWell done sci-fi drama indie film. It was a unique take on the fish-out-of-water story, and I can honestly say there's nothing out there like it today. It was well acted and made you think about the fragility of the human condition from the perspective of a human down on her luck & someone quite alien to this world. This movie kind of made me appreciate the gift of life and to also not let failure get in the way of being who you want to be in life or live life to it's fullest potential. |
| User ReviewEl NGreat to see fresh faces. Lauren Ashley Carter as Juliana and as immitation shows us her ability to be other people convincingly. At one point, Juliana looks in the mirror and channels Bette Davis. Her immitation depiction is a little like Latka Gravis from Taxi, nonetheless she is able to pull off the complexity of character required to keep the movie engaging. Too many unexplained, sometimes extraneous complexities undermine the flow.. There is some messaging about the decaying town and the insidious role of drugs in interrupting characters well being. I appreciated that casting got the email that multicultural casts (especially scenes shot in cities) are infinitely more interesting to watch than casting that seems to deny the existence of brown people, gay people, older people, bald people, young people, accomplished women, dull people etc, are pulled from the margins and permitted for meaningful instances to be in the center without Hollywood stereotyping. How these people interact with each other and take each other seriously as they seek intimacy enhances the film's depth. The ending was disappointing, it was as if they had spent all the money on earlier scenes, or got tired of filming and wanted to close it down very quickly. When that happens I feel disrespected as a viewer, that my time was wasted. I mean, if this is science fiction allow Juliana to enter into the life of the immigrant from Tehran, while the Immitation inhabits and straightens out her life in the city. They can keep up with each other using the mirror. Overall quality acting, multicultural casting, and decreased stereotyping, unfamiliar premise makes this movie a good watch. |
