  • The Hotel: Hours for Jerome, by Nathaniel Dorsky

    By on

    To mark the release of ‘Basin’ by Rocheman – a 21st century masterpiece of devotional art – The Hotel proudly presents a screening of Nathaniel Dorsky’s magnum opus ‘Hours for Jerome’.

    Hours for Jerome is a cinematic lyric poem dedicated to Dorsky’s partner, artist Jerome Hiler, documenting aspects of their daily life in Manhattan and New Jersey. The film is entirely silent, and rooted in a centuries-old tradition of devotional art, from stained glass painting to medieval illuminated manuscripts and books of hours.

  • Otherworldly Film Festival 3.0

    By on

    The independent film festival Otherworldly 3.0 is now accepting submissions. This season's main theme is transition.

    We are looking for films that take place on the threshold and linger in the gap between what is here, what is no longer with us, and what is yet to come. We want to see how transition grows through the very fabric of the image — in editing, rhythm, sound, silence, and in how the camera touches the world or averts its gaze from it.

    Submission fees: 

    Free submissions

    Location: 

    Saint Petersburg, Russia

    Deadline: 

    Monday, July 20, 2026 (All day)
