Troubling the Image: Landscapes of Light

By Marcos Ortega on Jue, 16/02/2017 - 15:17

The five-program series "Troubling the Image: New + Restored Experimental Cinema" features an eclectic and wide-ranging group of works that celebrate the vibrancy of experimental and almost-experimental cinema from near and far, now and then.

Landscapes of Light features works about place that alternate between close observations of the everyday and more expansive and dislocated views of the world. This program is anchored by two beautiful films by Dane Komljen, Our Body (2015) and All Still Orbit (2016; co-directed by James Lattimer), that imbue place with tenuous histories, personal and political. Arash Nassiri’s Tehran-geles (2015) is a nocturnal flight around the buildings of Tehran, a disorienting view of lights, commercial structures, and signage that could double for Times Square or Las Vegas. Also showing are Peter Hutton’s Boston Fire (1979), Julie Murray’s Distance (2010) and Joana Pimenta’s An Aviation Field (2016). Onscreen preshow is Lois Patiño’s video Strata of the Image (2015).

Troubling the Image: Tales of Sound and Vision

By Marcos Ortega on Vie, 20/01/2017 - 03:17

The five-program series "Troubling the Image: New + Restored Experimental Cinema" features an eclectic and wide-ranging group of works that celebrate the vibrancy of experimental and almost-experimental cinema from near and far, now and then.

Directly and obliquely, narratives are enacted, told, sung, and implied. Keewatin Dewdney’s Wildwood Flower (1971) is a simple, lovely imagining of the Carter Family’s eponymous song. Lois Patiño’s ghost-like smugglers haunt a phantasmagorical Portuguese mountain region in the cryptic Night without Distance (2015). Robert Flaherty’s long-lost film A Night of Storytelling (1935) captures the essence of Irish oral folklore. French-based Iranian filmmaker Arash Nassiri visualizes a conspiracy-driven monologue with a hallucinatory trip through the Paris catacombs in Darwin Darwah (2016). In Edward R. Feil’s The Inner World of Aphasia (1968) medical instructional film becomes a psychological horror film when a nurse becomes the patient.

Filmadrid International Film Festival (5 al 13 de junio, Madrid) es un festival neonato con la "determinación de descubrir senderos inéditos y novedosos dentro del paisaje cinematográfico contemporáneo". Como tal, en su primerísima edición ya presenta un compromiso muy fuerte con el cine experimental. En su sección competitiva de vanguardia participan dieciocho obras, largos y cortos, con piezas de Basma Alsharif, Laida Lertxundi, Juan Daniel F. Molero, Pablo Marín y Aura Satz, entre otros. Cuatro 'programas invitados' complementan la sección de vanguardias, con un programa de cortos animados de no ficción comisariado por Elena Duque ('La imagen faltante'); un programa comisariado por Albert Alcoz y Alberto Cabrera Bernal, cineastas y editores del sello de DVD Angular, quienes además presentarán su primer lanzamiento; una sesión dedicada al veterano cineasta Adolpho Arrietta; y una serie de piezas sobre los poeemas del escritor gallego Xosé María Díaz Castro titulado 'Proxecto Nimbos'. La sección Vanguardias Live reta a diversos creadores a realizar obras performativas en nuevas maneras en las que no hayan pensando o trabajado antes; esta edición incluirá performances de Juan Barrero, Lois Patiño y Salomé Lamas.
