As reference and inspiration, he mentions such thrillers as the San Francisco-set “Jade” and the Florida-set “Body Heat” alongside L.A.-set movies such as “Dead Again,” “American Gigolo” and “Bad Influence.” Katz is an avowed devotee of watching movies on VHS as well as literary crime fiction by writers such as John Dickson Carr. With its unusual mix of genre plot propulsion and odd character moments, the film makes for an eccentric alchemy. A low-key detective (John Cho) sifts through the messy possibilities. A dead body shot with Jill’s gun leaves behind a lot of suspects from Heather’s life, including a frustrated filmmaker (Nelson Franklin), a jilted boyfriend (Reeve Carney) and a secret girlfriend (Greta Lee).

Written and directed by Aaron Katz, the film focuses on a young Hollywood assistant, Jill LeBeau (Lola Kirke), who cleans up the personal and professional messes of her celebrity boss, actress Heather Anderson (Zoë Kravitz). Its examination of the world of celebrity and the contemporary slippage of identity is set against a vision of the city that is both glossy sleek and comfortably lived-in.

A politely sleazy thriller, the new film “Gemini” is a gripping murder mystery that reveals new dimensions of Los Angeles on screen.
