  • GAZE: Past Perfect • Future Tense

    By on

    GAZE film series invites filmmakers to submit short experimental, documentary and narrative works to the curated screening Past Perfect • Future Tense at Artists’ Television Access on Friday, June 19th.

    A show dedicated to our relationship with time—looking into the past, the present, and the future—contemplating our tumultuous connection to the clock and calendar. Seasons, cycles, phases, orbits and generations. How do we understand the longing for things that are gone or­ our desire to rewrite the past? What can we make of our anxiety of the unknown or the anticipation of things yet to be? Join us for an early celebration of the summer solstice, when the days are longest and the nights are shortest.

Our goal is to take over the downtown River Arts District of Haverhill with an entirely free festival to continue to expose experimental film to the community.
