His classic film Wavelength hasn’t played in Los Angeles for several years, so we are bringing it with two other short films, Standard Time (1967) and See You Later (1990) all screening on 16mm.
We are back and with news! We are working hard to make our next edition great. So we have a new date, Altered Images v.IV will be celebrated on Friday 10th of November!
This means that our submission deadlines have slightly changed. Take advantage of our Early Bird Deadline until the 30th of June.
