Poster for Poetry on Land

2024 · ★ 0.0 (0)

There are people in charge of managing someone’s front yard or the tomb, the branches of Han River, Seonyudo Park, and even restoring the damaged environment due to the forest fire in Goseong, Gangwon-do. They are landscape architects. Among those who offer a scenic and natural landscape to our life full of adversities, Jeong Yeong Seon, 82 years old, works today again as if she writes poetry on the ground for the next generation.

From the permafrost of the North to the thirty-degree heat of Adler, a train carries residents of the polar Urengoy to the Black Sea through 4,500 kilometers of Russian expanses. In the cramped space of a reserved carriage, in six days, fellow passengers - either by the will of the highest authority, or by chance of dropped tickets — will become the closest people in this tiny space for some time.

A re-framing both of Virginia Woolf’s 1928 novel Orlando, and of Potter’s film of the same name. Through song and dance, the new film will explore Orlando’s 400 year journey, with questions of class, race, sex, Britain’s imperialist history and what it means to be British now. In a departure from the original novel and film, a Black narrator and chorus will operate as a guide for the audience, bringing to light stories that were not told in the book and its adaptation.

Morabeza - this word, the expression of lack and pain, appears as a response to the pains of the Cabo Verde archipelago. Luciano, a tourist guide to the Châ da Caldeiras volcano, will be our guide. He has never left Fogo Island, and confides to us how he needs to get out of there. His daily chores: walk up the volcano, take care of his grapes and feed the cattle. In his spare time he accompanies his father, on the violin, with his Reco-Reco, a plain comb he scrapes a plastic tube with. The trip he invites us to take with him will also be his tour, an initiation journey in the heart of his country and culture.

Poster for 100 Best Kills: Texas Birth Control, Dick Destruction

2022 · ★ 5.0 (1)

100 Best Kills dates back to the earliest days of Fantastic Fest, a cornerstone of the fest’s grand tradition of lowbrow pandemonium. In previous years, we’ve focused our knee-slapping man-reaping sights on everything from vehicular mayhem to gut-busting infanticide. We brought you Vehikills and decapitations during the pandemic years; You sick and depraved fools still couldn’t get enough! We were banging our heads against the warm walls of the Alamo and it must have been the perfect mix of patriotism and stupidity that opened the floodgates to creative genius. For this, my hungry hippos, we said to ourselves, We must bring in Louise Weard, Filmmaker, writer, programmer, and even a Canadian, to join our very own Zack Carlson to help make this the greatest kills of all time. We proudly raise the flag, salute your shorts, and present 100 BEST KILLS : Texas Birth Control, Dick Destruction... A celebration and reliably comforting countdown of castrations.

Fragments explores the episodic nature of storytelling by addressing the film trailer as cultural form. With a lattice work of televangel broadcast segments, romance novel phrases, and an aria from Verdi's "La Forza del Destino," Fragments shuttles us through the walls of two adjacent studios; between the lives of two women dangling from a single mediated thread. Three lives. Two visions. One story.
