    Projection of BackBone: Vancouver Experimental Cinema 1967 – 1981

    Curated and presented by Richard Martin

    From Vancouver Canada, filmmaker and curator Richard Martin presents a unique view of early art film from the Canadian West Coast that reflects the experimental concerns of filmmakers from Vancouver to San Francisco and Los Angeles.

  • Light Movement 29: Spring Portraits

    By on

    The program Spring Portraits groups together filmmakers who at times deal loosely with the theme of portraits - either of people, places, atmospheres, and who mostly also have, in some way, a connection to the city of Berlin. Some are long established names, others are making their first film - what is important is that they share some sensibility - and a belief in films power as a medium to transcend mere representation whilst simultaneously capturing something of life's fleeting moments.

    *all films will be shown on film

    Saturday, April 21, 2018 - 20:00 to Sunday, April 22, 2018 - 19:55

  • OFFoff Cinema: Kort Geknipt & De Andere Film - Robert Nelson and Standish Lawder
