  • Light Held In Time: The films of Jerome Hiler and Nathaniel Dorsky

    By on

    Cinema Konsonant and Kino Ponrepo present a two-evening program of the films of Jerome Hiler and Nathaniel Dorsky.

    Nathaniel Dorsky's cinema centers on a poetic montage — relying not on a descriptive narrative but on an intuitive consonance between images. With this "polyvalent editing" technique Dorsky makes one image "resonate" with another several frames later. His films register objects of everyday life with great care and delicacy, making just a brief encounter in a poetic gap between too much meaning and no meaning at all.

  • Deep Focus open call - Unbuild/Unbuilt

    By on

    Deep Focus invites a new round of submissions for films reflecting on the tensions between creation, destruction and de-construction. Unbuild/Unbuilt proposes to look at ways in which the components of a structure are removed from it one by one, putting said structure, be it anything from architectures to epistemologies, ideologies and relations, through a process of transformation or complete renewal. And when everything is removed, or nothing has been created yet, what occupies that state of potentiality?
