 ONION CITY - NICOLáS PEREDA’S ALL THINGS WERE NOW OVERTAKEN BY SILENCE +
 SHORTS
  All Things Were Now Overtaken by Silence (2009, 61 min., Video,
  Mexico/Canada) by Nicolás Pereda /// "Nicolás Pereda's stunning and
  spacious black and white feature is a film within a film, in which a
  crew sets up for and shoots a performance by actress, director,
  performance artist and political activist Jesusa Rodriguez. Amidst a
  sparsely lit set, she recites the poem Primero sueño (First I Dream) by
  the 17th century Mexican writer Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz while the crew
  works in fits and starts, positioning and repositioning the lighting and
  camera in take after take. A meditation on the concept of silence within
  filmmaking, Pereda's film moves at a languorous pace. The film almost
  completely resists an image, favoring a deep, atmospheric blackout with
  brief glimpses of light punctuating this emptiness to illustrate a body,
  a lamp, or the architecture of the room. Echoing this visual
  relationship between dark and light, Primero sueño – Sor Juana's most
  well-known work – is heard in flashes, as a poetic rupture during the
  banal back-and-forth of the crew as they film Rodriguez. Sor Juana's
  poem is composed of a dream-like narrative, which can very generally be
  described as chronicling a soul's search for knowledge. The film
  embodies not only a formal manifestation of these concepts, but a more
  engaged relationship through the context of Sor Juana's history and the
  extensive feminist and political overtones that characterize the work of
  Jesusa Rodriguez. Pereda's narrative functions much as the poem: a
  baroque, poetic account that fluidly moves between the ethereal and the
  earthly. Using Sor Juana's narrative and its frequent references to
  silence, both literal and metaphorical, Pereda's film is an exploration
  of silence as an aesthetic, intellectual and narrative construct."

 MINORITY REPORT: REPRESENTING GAYS, LESBIANS AND THE SEXUAL ‘OTHER’ IN
 SEXPLOITATION FILMS LECTURE & SCREENING: ERIC SCHAEFER IN PERSON!
  "Softcore sexploitation movies of the 1960s and '70s tend to be
  recognized for their overwhelmingly heterosexual orientation, from the
  first 'nudie-cuties' in the early '60s to the teen sex comedies of the
  late '70s that closed out the cycle. But for many years they explored
  alternatives to normative heterosexuality. Sexploitation films offered
  up a parade of predatory lesbians, bewildered bisexuals, lonely sidewalk
  cowboys, and others living on society's sexual margins. Using images and
  film clips from movies such as Suburbia Confidential (1966), She-Man
  (1967), All the Way Down (1968), Therese and Isabelle (1968), The
  Meatrack (1970) and others, this presentation will offer an overview of
  the ways sexploitation movies dealt with sexual minorities from the
  mid-1960s through the early 1970s—a time when mainstream Hollywood was
  only beginning to gingerly approach the theme. While often framing queer
  identities as pathological, some films offered surprisingly sympathetic
  portrayals of individuals who, at the time, were forced to suppress
  their sexuality or live their lives in the shadows." (Eric Schaefer)

 ONION CITY - MADISON BROOKSHIRE'S COLOR SERIES
  Color Series (2010, 74 min., 16mm, US) by Madison Brookshire /// "A
  series of 6 films that form one work. Each film fades between colors.
  They are made without a camera, using only the lights of the printing
  process at the lab. The fades are slow enough that they engage the
  viewer in a dialogue about the border between the work and his or her
  own perception of it. The subject of the work is duration and color is
  the medium through which we experience it. The converse is also true:
  the subject is color and duration is the medium. The effect is a direct
  experience of time and vision." (Migrating Forms festival)

 ONION CITY - JAMES FOTOPOULOS' ALICE IN WONDERLAND
  Alice in Wonderland (2010, 99 min., Video, US) by James Fotopoulos ///
  An adaptation of the 1886 musical Alice in Wonderland: A Dream Play for
  Children by Henry Saville Clark and Walter Slaughter. James Fotopoulos'
  feature length film Alice in Wonderland, inspired by a 2003 Lewis
  Carroll photography exhibit, propels the Clark/Slaughter musical score
  into the 21st century digital age. Sculptures, drawings, text, and
  original music are used to explore the late 19th century's evolution of
  painting, literature, and theatre into early photography and moving
  pictures. The piece probes the interplay of art and science and in
  exploring these ideas certain lives and themes are touched upon – the
  relationship between John Ruskin and Lewis Carroll, Ruskin's theories on
  drawing, Thomas Eakins' painting and his use of photography, the
  burgeoning of early cinema with Eadweard Muybridge and Étienne-Jules
  Marey, the notions of the amateurism and professionalism in art and the
  archetype of the condemned artist. The work is presented in two acts
  remaining faithful to the musical's original construction based upon
  Carroll's narratives. (JF)

 SUPER 8 FILMS BY RACHELLE RAHME
  Aprooximately 50 minutes. Admission $6. Bushwick-based artist Rachelle
  Rahme joins us for a night of her Super-8 films shot in NYC, California,
  Maryland, and Lebanon. Rahme writes of her work: "...I attempt to create
  a narrative using a free style, utilizing montage, sequence, and rhythm.
  The films I am showing tonight represent a naturalistic period in my
  work, naturally lit and structured in camera. I seek a visualization of
  the discordance I feel in my surroundings and by imposing narrative,
  seek a redemption from infinite Time. The camerawork is influenced by
  interests in eye-tracking and surrealism. Creating the work relies on an
  embodied understanding of the optics and camera mechanics, and as my arm
  folds over my chest and heart while I film, so my films tonight
  represent a short circuit between the emotions and intellect." -RR
  Rachelle Rahme is a filmmaker, musician, dj, artist and writer working
  and living in Brooklyn, NY. As a filmmaker she works primarily with
  Super-8. She is a founding member of the Optipus Group, a collective of
  NY film & video makers that most recently performed at the BOS Film
  Festival, curated by Microscope. She has also exhibited, screened or
  performed in at Anthology Film Archives, The Stone, Participant Inc,
  West Nile, Sunset Strip MonoNoAware, Issue Project Room, Watty & Meg and
  others. She received her BFA in Film & Television from Tisch School of
  the Arts and has been shooting Super 8 and 16mm film since 2004. J/M/Z -

 MICHAEL BRYNNTRUP - MESELF, MYSELF AND ISELF - DIRECTORS LOUNGE SCREENING
  Directors Lounge Screening -°*°- Michael Brynntrup - „meSelf, mySelf and
  iSelf" - film and video works -°*°- Michael Brynntrup is an artist and
  filmmaker who has been probing the limits of independent, personal and
  experimental film since the 80's. Very early in his art career, he
  started off with Super-8 films, but soon experimented with multiple
  projections and collaborations with other artists. With „Jesus, der
  Film" his collaboration took the form of a „cadavre exquisite", the
  joint product of a number of directors who only saw part of the work of
  their collegues, but who all were asked to have Brynntrup play the main
  character, Jesus. The resulting feature-long film became a legend, while
  little later, Brynntrup also became a well known director in the
  gay-and-lesbian cinema movement. His goal, however, always was to not
  become monopolized by a certain scene, and thus, since his start, he has
  strived for a diversity of themes and genres in his work. Still, we can
  find the repeated and ongoing questions of the identity of the self, the
  question, how the rolls we play in society are being defined by gender
  and sexual orientation, and how the mirror of the other, and the mirror
  of death influences our lives. (curated by Klaus W. Eisenlohr) -°*°-

 ESSENTIAL CINEMA: DOG STAR MAN
  by Stan Brakhage 1961-64, 74 minutes, 16mm A masterwork in which all of
  Brakhage's techniques achieve a complex synthesis to produce one of
  cinema's supreme epic poems. "The film breathes and is an organic and
  surging thing… it is a colossal lyrical adventure-dance of image in
  every variation of color." –Michael McClure, ARTFORUM

 CLEAR CUT: EXPERIMENTS FROM THE EMERALD CITY
  Even today, the Northwest remains an outpost of lumberjacks, fishermen,
  and pioneers. This shorts program delivers the region's pioneering
  spirit with nine short films, curated by Northwest Film Forum's program
  director Adam Sekuler, that offer a glimpse into the experimental
  practices of filmmakers from the Emerald City of Seattle, WA. Carving
  out new territory in the timberland of cinema these films explore
  juxtapositions of place and space, past and present, personal and
  impersonal, literal and figurative, and, as with all great cinema, the
  intentional and unintentional. All works in this program are on digital
  video. C.W. Winter TIME LAPSE MOTION PICTURE NO. 4 (SEATTLE) (2011, 6
  minutes) A subtle shift of pixels in a hotel room is the ultimate in
  subtle examination of space and time. Commissioned by Northwest Film
  Forum. Britta Johnson CRASHING WAVES (2010, 7 minutes) Castaways perform
  strange tasks on a deserted shore. Are they gods, or have they been
  driven mad by their predicament? Luke Sieczek SPACE, THE AIR, THE RIVER,
  THE LEAF (2009, 12 minutes) Using a mixture of interpretive strategies –
  from documentary observation, expressionistic abstraction,
  improvisational music, and dance – this film explores the passage of
  water as it undergoes a series of natural filtering processes. Serge
  Gregory WHEN HERONS DREAM (2009, 11 minutes) Imagines the perspective of
  a great blue heron as it moves through the seasons and a Northwest
  landscape shaped by water. Karn Junkinsmith & Adam Sekuler INTERPRETIVE
  SITE: HANFORD REACH (2011, 7 minutes) Gretchen Burger UNWRAPPING (2010,
  9 minutes) Drawing on nine years of boxing training, UNWRAPPING is an
  exploration of how memory and emotion manifest to shape the body's
  alignment and movement. Alexandra Roxo THE HEART IS WHAT REMAINS (2009,
  13 minutes) Two lovers meet and experience the birth, life, and death of
  love. Curtis Taylor CHURCH WEATHER (2009, 10 minutes) Exploring
  contemplation and perception, CHURCH WEATHER follows a woman on her way
  home, who hears the radio broadcast of a sacred choir, triggering her
  repressed awareness of the connected, hidden mechanics of all things.
  Drew Christie THE MAN WHO SHOT THE MAN WHO SHOT LINCOLN (2010, 5
  minutes) An animated interpretation of the strange life of Boston
  Corbett. Total running time: ca. 85 minutes.
