A melo-dramatic docu-drama with voice-over in stop-motion and long-time exposure.—B.L.- Future So Bright (Matt McCormick, 2010)23 minutes | 16mm transferred to HDFuture So Bright is a documentation and mapping project that creatively catalogs abandoned spaces in the American West.Perhaps best classified as an experimental-documentary, the film explores ghost towns, abandoned military bases, and boarded up tourist traps to present a meditative time capsule of the false starts and failed attempts of the past 200 years of American Western Expansion.- The Sea [is still] Around Us (Hope Tucker, 2012)4 minutes | HD | USThe postcard of a vacation spot usually enhances the reality. The contrast is more stark in Corinna, Maine, a former woolen mill town on the shores of Lake Sebasticook, where unregulated dumping of pesticides and industrial waste contaminated the water supply.- Marshy Place Across (Lorenzo Gattorna, 2012)USA | Format: 16mm transferred to DV | color/b&w | sound | 4:30 minutesThe title signifies the Native American name for Assateague Island, a national seashore and natural landmark located off the coast of Maryland. A passive bay and pristine beach compose the barriers of this subtle yet stunning passage. Distractions amongst the dunes awaken development of the ecological and departure of the artificial. The film culminates in close proximity to a small band of feral horses that share a common territory and domesticated ancestry. — L.G.- Ships passing on the Huangpu River (Chris H Lynn, 2013) Video/Super 8 film transferred to DV|color/b&w|sound| 7:22Images of ships recorded in the same location (Shanghai) at different time periods(2008-2013) drift in and out the frame towards their unknown destination. - In a Winter Landscape (Nick Collins, 2013)Super 8 fillm-A silent lyrical ode to winter in the U.KOctober 19 at 6 pmGreenbelt Municipal Building, 25 Crescent RoadGreenbelt, MD 20770http://www.utopiafilmfestival.org/index.html
