WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20, 7:30 - Opening night!
Popaganda: the Art and Crimes of Ron English
 Pedro Carvajal, 78 min, video, USA

POPaganda: The Art & Subversion of Ron English is a film about the culture jamming and billboard-liberation antics of Ron English. The modern day Robin Hood of Madison Avenue, Ron paints, perverts, infiltrates, reinvents and satirizes modern culture on canvas, in songs, and directly on hundreds of pirated billboards. Shot entirely guerilla-style, the film chronicles the evolution of an artist who offers an alternative universe where nothing is sacred, everything is subverted and there's always room for a little good-natured fun.

THURSDAY, APRIL 21, 4:30
War at a Distance
 Harun Farocki, 54 min, video, Germany

Since the 1991 Gulf War, the act of warfare and the act of reporting it have become hyper-technological affairs in which real and computer-generated images cannot be distinguished from each other. Using his own new, and archival, images, Farocki sketches the relationship between military strategy and industrial production and shows how war technology finds its way into our everyday life.

The Great Art of Knowing
 David Gatten, 37 min, 16mm, USA

The fourth installment of his nine-part "Byrd Project," The Great Art of Knowing chronicles the Byrd family of Virginia during the early 18th century.

with

His newest film documents the stark, desolate, and stunning geography of Northern Iceland.

Cinema Project is a Portland based screening collective that is dedicated to showcasing experimental and avant-garde film and video in an intimate environment. Visit their website at www.cinemaproject.org

 

FRIDAY, APRIL 22, 4:30
The Birdpeople
Michael Gitlin, 61 min, 16mm, USA

A loosely-knit community of birdwatchers in New York's Central Park; ornithologists with their specimen collections at a dozen different natural history museums; bird banders gingerly extracting birds from mist nets and collecting data in upstate New York; six people searching for an extinct bird in a Louisiana bayou: these are the strands that are woven together by The Birdpeople as it documents a passionate fixation. Part cultural history, part self-reflexive anthropology, by turns humorous and elegiac, The Birdpeople examines the pleasures and problems of looking and naming, and investigates the social construction of nature, centered on ornithology and its amateur counterpart, birdwatching.

The images of birds in the film, optically printed from Kodachrome Super-8, form a re-occurring counterpoint to the portraits of the bird people. Rather than bringing the birds into an anthropomorphized and sympathetic relationship to the viewer, these worked-over images foreground the birds' inassimilable otherness and the strange edges of their beauty.

Proceeded by
Under Foot and Overstory
 Jason Livingston, 35 min, 16mm, USA

A short documentary about a group of citizens trying to save a local park, or at least trying to compose a paragraph about saving a local park.

 

FRIDAY, APRIL 22, 7:00
Occupation: Dreamland
 Garrett Scott and Ian Olds, 85 min, video, USA
 Garrett Scott in attendance!

OCCUPATION: DREAMLAND is the melancholy portrait of a squad of American soldiers deployed in the doomed Iraqi city of Falluja during the winter of 2004. A collective study of the squad unfolds as they patrol a bewildering environment of low-intensity conflicts creeping steadily towards a catastrophic assault that effectively destroys the city. The filmmakers were given access to all operations of the Army's 82nd Airborne and their film gives voice to soldiers held under a strict code of authority as they cope in an ambiguous, often lethal environment.

Garrett Scott is an award winning filmmaker, who recently returned to the US from Iraq, where he had been for almost a year shooting his Occupation: Dreamland. His film "Cul-de Sac: A Suburban War Story," was a huge hit here at the 2002 PDX Film Festival, and we are excited to host him as a featured artist at this year's festival. Garrett was featured prominently by Filmmaker Magazine as one of the "20 new faces in film to watch" in 2002. His directorial debut, Cul de Sac: A Suburban War Story, premiered at the 2002 Toronto International Film Festival and has since screened around the world and broadcast on the Sundance Channel. In addition to Occupation: Dreamland, Garrett is working on a documentary about city politics in San Francisco in the 1970's.

Garrett, who is a featured guest of the festival, will be present for screenings of Occupation: Dreamland and Cul de Sac, discussing the films and taking questions from the audience after the screenings.

SATURDAY, APRIL 23, 3:30
A Darkness Swallowed
 Betzy Bromberg, 78 min, 16mm, L.A.

A Darkness Swallowed is experimental filmmaker Betzy Bromberg's most abstract and most intimate work - and perhaps her most beautiful in a list of films that have continually shattered and expanded conceptions of beauty. The camera sensually explores a range of hues that go from the golden amber of light reflected through murky waters and resin sculptures, to the light gray and pale green of subtle, fragile Japanese-like compositions. A dark, brooding, richly textured soundtrack echoes the film's journey through a metaphorical, surreal landscape. Like a whisper, invisible traumas and imaginary memories haunt the cinematic space, sending the viewers back to their own swallowed darkness.

An experimental documentary about resistance, balance, and fame.

Since he first broke the Guinness World Record in 1997, Adil has become an inadvertent national icon for his people's struggle in the face of increasingly harsh Chinese repression. By portraying the intimate details of everyday life amidst the troupe, Kings of the Sky reveals to those unfamiliar with Uyghur culture, the small truths which together form a sense of national and political identity.

SUNDAY, APRIL 24, 8:00
Me and You and Everyone We Know
 Miranda July, 95 min, 35mm, USA

 FILMMAKER IN ATTENDANCE!
With her incredibly auspicious debut feature, Me and You and Everyone We Know, the acclaimed multimedia performance artist Miranda July makes the leap to feature filmmaking with such skill and original vision it's hard not to feel a tremor of excitement. A new voice in American cinema has arrived.

July's film is a poetic and penetrating observation of how people struggle to connect with one another in an isolating and contemporary world. Christine Jesperson (July herself) is a lonely artist and eldercab driver who uses her fantastical artistic visions to draw her aspirations and objects of desire closer to her. Richard Swersey (John Hawkes), a newly single shoe salesman and father of two boys, is prepared for amazing things to happen. But when he meets the captivating Christine, he panics. Life is not so oblique for Richard's 7-year-old Robby, who is having a risqué Internet romance with a stranger, and his 14-year-old brother Peter, who becomes the guinea pig for neighborhood girls practicing for their future of romance and marriage.

In July's modern world, the mundane is transcendent, and everyday people become radiant characters who speak their innermost thoughts, act on secret impulses, and experience truthful human moments that at times approach the surreal. They seek togetherness through tortuous routes and find redemption in the small moments that connect them to someone else on earth.- Shari Frilot, Sundance Film Festival
Miranda July makes movies, performances, recordings and combinations of these things. Her short movies ( Haysha Royko, The Amateurist, Nest of Tens, Getting Stronger Every Day) have been screened internationally at sites such as the Museum of Modern Art and the Guggenheim Museum. Nest of Tens and a sound installation, The Drifters, were presented in the 2002 Whitney Biennial. July participated in the 2004 Whitney Biennial with learningtoloveyoumore.com, created with support from the Creative Capital foundation and in collaboration with artist Harrell Fletcher. July's multi-media performances (Love Diamond, The Swan Tool, How I Learned to Draw) have been presented at venues such as the Institute of Contemporary Art in London and The Kitchen in New York. July's stories can be read in The Paris Review and The Harvard Review and her radio performances can be heard regularly on NPR's The Next Big Thing.

A resident of Portland for nearly 10 years before relocating to Los Angeles to shoot "Me and You and Everyone We Know," we are please to welcome her back and excited to have this opportunity to see her new work.
