Ken Jacobs will be premiering his new film, Two Wrenching Departures, next September 28th at MoMA (New York). The film is "a 90 minute meditation on the deaths of his friends Jack Smith and
Bob Fleischner, who died within four days of each other in 1989." Smith and Fleischner appeared frequently in Jacobs' works, specially in Star Spangled to Death. Jack Smith is the author of works such as  Flaming Creatures, Normal Love or Scotch Tape.

The Brooklyn Rail has just published an interesting interview toJacobs.
