  • Fred Worden: A Cinema of Pure Energy

    By on

    For the first event of 2026, Lightstruck is extremely excited to present a double feature of programs from one of our very favorite artists and individuals, Fred Worden. Since 1970, Worden has produced a wide range of experimental filmmaking in the purest sense of that term – his work engages in deeply thoughtful, endlessly exploratory investigations into the ecstatic adventure of primal perception and optical phenomena that are unique (elemental, even) to motion pictures.

  • Braquage: On Lost Highway

    By on

    Just one year ago, David Lynch, an innovative filmmaker who constantly pushed the boundaries of abstraction, nightmare and sensory plasticity in images, passed away. A major artist, his work drew on many forms and inspired filmmakers, either directly or more indirectly. Tonight, Braquage is launching a long-term cycle, in which every year on 15 January we will screen a series of experimental films evoking one of David Lynch's films. In 2026, we will begin with Lost Highway.
