How To Talk To Girls At Parties is the fourth feature from writer-director John Cameron Mitchell. Set at a time when the Sex Pistols were at their peak, wannabe punk Enn (newcomer Alex Sharp) is at a local house party when he falls for the strange but beautiful Zan (Elle Fanning). When Zan and her fellow exchange students turn out to be aliens sent to Earth to prepare for a right of passage, a besotted Enn must call on his punk allies to help save the girl he loves from certain death. Co-starring Nicole Kidman, Matt Lucas and Ruth Wilson, the film has been adapted from Neil Gaiman's short story by Mitchell and Philippa Goslett.
