10TH ANNUAL HUMAN RIGHTS FILM FESTIVAL - DAY 2
The Human Rights Film Festival is an annual presentation of documentary
films highlighting national and global social justice themes. Basic
human rights, including the right to peacefully assemble, the right to
religious freedom, the right of political sovereignty and the right to
life and liberty, are often taken for granted in Western industrialized
nations. The Human Rights Film Festival began in 2000 as the UNA/UCI
Human Rights Film Festival and has since moved to the Echo Park Film
Center. This year's focus is on Latin America. All events are FREE and
open to the public. Noon-1pm: Coming Home (43 min, USA) 1pm-3pm: White
Clouds, Black Clouds (5 min, Italy), In the Light of Reverence (73 min,
USA) 3pm-4pm: Exigibilidad de los Derechos de Las Mujeres – Por el
derecho a una vida libre de violencias par alas mujeres (43 min,

8pm - ADMISSION $8 / $6 members, 66 East 4th Street
PERSONAL CINEMA SERIES: TRIBUTE TO JIM NEU (FRI. 19TH & SAT. 20TH)
Jim Neu, who passed away this past July, was acclaimed for his writings
for the Off-Off-Broadway theatre and experimental films. He was a
frequent presence at Millennium and wrote many of his plays for
production at La MaMa Theatre. (La MaMa will present a special program
dedicated to Jim Neu on the afternoon of November 20th). The Millennium
will be screening two feature films that Jim Neu wrote the screen plays
for- DOOMED LOVE and THE BIG BLUE, both directed by Andy Horn. We also
will screen a short film co-directed by Jacob Burckhardt and Jim Neu-
DUET FOR SPIES.----"Mr Neu's subject, broadly speaking, was the effect
of pop culture on the individual American psyche...A jazz lover, Mr. Neu
often included original music and songs in his plays and infused his
dialogue with a cryptic musicality that he borrowed from the likes of
Duke Ellington and Thelonious Monk, employing short sentences in
sometimes daffy repartee that zigged and zagged between slightly warped
cliches and other quirky surprises."- Bruce Weber (NY
TIMES).---------------- NOV. 19 THE BIG BLUE (100 min. 1988) Directed by
Andy Horn,--- DUET FOR SPIES (22.5 min. 1993) Directed by Jacob
Burckhardt & Jim Neu.------ NOV. 20 DOOMED LOVE (75 min. 1983) Directed
by Andy Horn (Filmed & premiered at Millennium). A "modern" opera of
love and death- memory and obsession. The dialogue, written by Jim Neu
(a former collaborator of Robert Wilson), calls up the romantic
phraseology of the ages- from literature to TV- strung together into a
musical refrain.

Old Bridge N.J: Old Bridge Filmmakers Showcase
1:30, Old Bridge Public Library
SHORT FILM SHOW

MCCORMICK’S FUTURE SO BRIGHT + UMAN + SACHS +
Matt McCormick's Future So Bright meditates on abandoned spaces in the
American West. This half-hr. sneak peek at his experimental essay
considers the failed efforts of the American Western Expansion,
exploring ghost towns, abandoned military bases, and boarded-up tourist
traps. In 16mm, Naomi Uman's Ukranian Time Capsule is a 55-min. personal
journey to her familial roots in Eastern Europe, organized in poignant
episodes of earthy village life. PLUS the Bay Area premiere of the
much-lauded Last Address by Ira (Forty Shades of Blue) Sachs, cataloging
exteriors of the final residences of NY artists who died of AIDS
(Haring, Mapplethorpe, Eichelberger, and too many more). AND Marcy
Saude's This Kind of Town, Mark Street's Street of Dreams, Bryan Boyce's
Valencia Gardens, Rich Bott's Hard Feelings, and free maps!

SPIRITUAL TRANSMISSION IN 3D
The show will be upstairs in the Banquet Hall. The show is free. ST3D is
an Experimental Trans-media Show incorporating Film into Theatre. I am
using projected film to create a space in which the actors will perform
live. It is an interpretation of how the human, the spirit and the media
relate to each other through the infrastructure of the dawning digital
era. Plot: An old man's life flashes before his eyes and we discover to
what extent the media and it's growing number of outlets has impacted
his life's story. This theme is further implied by the projection on the
screens which creates the impression that the stage, which is dressed as
a bedroom, is also the interior of a bad television that intermittently
displays visual memories from television, film, and home footage.

5:15pm, 2575 Bancroft Way
RADICAL LIGHT: 1990-1999
By the 1990s, many Bay Area filmmakers were products of Bay Area film
programs, with some, such as Sandra Davis, Jay Rosenblatt, and Greta
Snider, going on to teach. Dominic Angerame continued to run Canyon
Cinema, a distributor of experimental cinema; Scott Stark founded
Flicker, which documents alternative cinema online; and Jenni Olson
programmed for the local lesbian and gay film festival. These were
artists who spent a lot of time viewing and thinking about cinema, which
nurtured an interest in the particularities of the medium. For Greta
Snider and the collaborative group silt, this included hand processing
their film. Scott Stark and Jay Rosenblatt found new meaning in footage
they found or collected while Kerry Laitala recontextualized antique
medical slides. Cauleen Smith fabricated a personal history in her
collage film, and Jenni Olson contrasted a recollection of a one-night
stand with San Francisco's urban landscape. In their films, Angerame,
Davis, and Timoleon Wilkins each beautifully evoked a specific place.
Short of Breath (Jay Rosenblatt, 1990, 10 mins, Color). Chronicles of a
Lying Spirit (by Kelly Gabron) (Cauleen Smith, 1991–, 5 mins, Color). Au
Sud (To the South, Sandra Davis, 1991-99, 6.5 mins, From artist).
Premonition (Dominic Angerame, 1995, 10 mins, B&W). Shadow of the Son

1997, 9 mins, Color, From the artist). Lake of the Spirits (Timoleon
Wilkins, 1998, 7 mins, Color). Blue Diary (Jenni Olson, 1997, 6 mins,

Cleveland, OH: Cleveland Cinematheque
http://www.cia.edu/cinematheque.html
7pm, The Cleveland Institute of Art | 11141 East Boulevard
THE FILMS OF ROBERT BANKS & BRUCE CHECEFSKY
USA, 1997-2010, Robert Banks, Bruce Checefsky Tonight we screen a
program of short films by two of Cleveland's foremost filmmakers, Robert
Banks and Bruce Checefsky. These two men, whose films have been shown
nationally and internationally at such venues as Anthology Film
Archives, The Museum of Modern Art, the Rotterdam International Film
Festival, and the Sundance Film Festival (among many others), frequently
collaborate with each other. But beyond that, they share a fascination
with avant-garde cinema (easily seen in their own abstract film work),
as well as a love for the aesthetic and physical properties of
celluloid. (Both still shoot on film, and everything we will show
tonight is on16mm or 35mm.) But each man is also a distinctive talent.
Checefsky, whose day job is Director of the Reinberger Galleries at the
Cleveland Institute of Art, works mostly in black-and-white,
re-imagining classic Eastern European avant-garde films from the
1920s-40s that were either lost or destroyed, or perhaps only scripted
or described but never filmed. His work tends to refined, elegant,
classical. Banks' movies, on the other hand, are riots of shots, sounds,
colors, and camera angles, and are often scratched-on or painted-on.
Themes include African-American life, the culture of beauty, and the
media. Program includes Checefsky's Pharmacy (2001), A Woman and Circles
(2004), Moment Musical (2006), Tuareg (2008), and Béla (2009); and
Banks' MPG: Motion Picture Genocide (1997), Jaded (1998); Outlet (1999);
Embryonic (1999); Goldfish and Sunflowers (1999); A.W.O.L. (2004); Faith
'n' Chaos (2004); He Namedrops the Spider (2010); and perhaps some new
works and other surprises. Banks and Checefsky will answer audience
questions after the screening. Total approx. 120 min.

6PM, "Glendale Planetarium" 1500 North Verdugo Rd.
J-WALT’S “SPONTANEOUS FANTASIA” AND OTHER LIVE VISUAL PERFORMERS
The Glendale Community College Planetarium presents cutting-edge
immersive 3D real time animation SPONTANEOUS FANTASIA, performed live by
artist/programmer/composer J-Walt Adamczyk. The show represents a brand
new art form where the one-hour animated program won't exist until the
artist creates it live in front of the audience. This show also includes
performances by special guests.

Leeds: Cherry Kino

1pm, ESA, Patrick Studios, St Mary's Lane, Leeds, LS9 7EH
AFTER THE EMPIRE
Wondermental cinema can be a politically discursive art form, with its
ability to question, subvert, oppose and rebel. This programme presents
an array of recent works chosen for their political engagement with the
idea of empire, whether overt or subtle, asking you to think again.
Controlled fury at the hypocrisy of the 'priveleged', the quietly
powerful flag on the mountain, cinema and dictatorship in North Korea, a
multi-screen subversive ethnicity, a cry of 'why' in Algeria, a revised
Heart of Darkness, Leo Strauss' connection with torture, photography as
colonial appropriation, and rethinking the urban. Includes work by
Gioli, Smith, Bärtås, Wong, Devaux, Breuer, Sanborn, Chen and Lurf.

4pm, ESA, Patrick Studios, St Mary's Lane, Leeds, LS9 7EH
WARREN SONBERT
A celebration of just a small part of the superb oeuvre of Warren
Sonbert, one of the seminal figures of American wondermental film and
rarely shown in the UK. He started making films in 1966 and was given a
retrospective before he was 20! His early films feature denizens of the
Warhol scene, with his late works culminating in astonishing symphonic
montages, both silent and sound, uniting universal human gestures into
singular works of moving image artistry. A prolific theorist and critic
as well as filmmaker, his films display a deep love and understanding of
cinema. The programme, curated by Jon Gartenberg, is entitled 'Silent
Rhythms / Sound Symphonies II' and includes the films 'The Cup and the
Lip' (1986, colour, silent) and 'Short Fuse' (1992, colour & b/w,
sound), both on 16mm.

THOM ANDERSEN: OUT OF THE CAR AND INTO THE MUSIC OF THE STREETS
These three sad, funny, beautiful works take you through Los Angeles,
2009, and Munich, 1967/1968. Thom Andersen's new film Get Out of the Car
(2010, 34 min., 16mm) responds to his award-winning documentary Los
Angeles Plays Itself by recording the city's most evanescent signs,
memorializing some of its vanished monuments and musical history. Get
Out of the Car is screened with two 1960s shorts that served as points
of inspiration and departure: The Bridegroom, the Actress, and the Pimp,
(1968, 23 min., 35 mm) by Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet, with
music by Johann Sebastian Bach and dialogue by Saint John of the Cross
in a radical condensation of Ferdinand Bruckner's three-act play
Sickness of Youth; and The Little Chaos (1967, 10 min., 16mm) by Rainer
Werner Fassbinder, a mordant commentary on the sickness of contemporary
German youth, with music by Richard Wagner and the Troggs. In person:

http://www.millenniumfilm.org/
8pm - Admission $8 / $6 members, 66 East 4th Street
PERSONAL CINEMA SERIES: STEPHEN DWOSKIN
Stephen Dwoskin, born in Brooklyn, New York, contracted Polio at the age
of seven and was left disabled. After studying art with de Kooning and
Albers, he attended NYU and the Parsons School of Design. He soon
discovered experimental cinema and was influenced by the transgressive
underground films of Jack Smith and Ron Rice. This led to the publishing
of his book, FILM IS. He began making his own films and moved to Britain
in 1964 where he has lived ever since. He was one of the founders of the
London Film-makers Cooperative. His features, beginning in the 1970s,
attracted much attention and critical acclaim, along with strong
controversy.-----PROGRAM------- THE SUN AND THE MOON, US PREMIERE
(60min. 2007) This video is some kind of enforced domestic cinema: an
excessive video film in which the maker does not spare himself. Short of
breath, in the absence of the spoken word. "The Sun and the Moon, a film
fairy tale, is about two women's terrifying encounter with 'Otherness'
in the form of a man, abject and monstrous, and for them to either to
witness, accept or partake in his annihilation. All are caught in their
own isolation and are fearful of the menace that has to be met. The
film, as a personal interpretation of Beauty and the Beast, enciphers
concerns, beliefs and desires in seductive images that are themselves a
form of camouflage, making it possible to utter harsh truths."
-S.D.--------- NIGHTSHOTS 1,2,3 (33min. 2006-2007) Shot utilizing the
"night vision" function of a digital video camera, these films deal with
one person's perspective on sexuality, with the visual distortion and
off-kilter color balance of the low-light camera adding to the film's
unique point of view. Nightshots 1,2,3 was screened in competition at
the 2007 Rotterdam International Film Festival. "The first three of a
series of intriguing personal and erotic relationships, exploring in the
intimacy of darkness, and transformed by the colour play of the night
light." -S.D.

MONO NO AWARE IV : EXPANDED CINEMA EVENT
MONO NO AWARE IS AN INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION OF EXPANDED CINEMA
PERFORMANCES. TAKING ITS NAME FROM THE JAPANESE EXPRESSION MEANING -THE
PATHOS OF THINGS-. THE CONCEPT IS TO PRESENT WORK WHICH IS EPHEMERAL IN
NATURE WITH AN EMPHASIS ON THE CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE. RECENT ADVANCEMENTS
IN TECHNOLOGY HAVE ALTERED THE AUDIENCE EXPERIENCE AND CONNECTIVITY
ASSOCIATED WITH THE CINEMA. WEBSITES, TELEVISION, AND EVEN CELL PHONES
HAVE BECOME AN EVERYDAY VEHICLE FOR FILM AND VIDEO. ALL OF THE WORK
PRESENTED AT MONO NO AWARE CONSISTS OF ONE PART FILM PROJECTION AND ONE
PART LIVE PERFORMANCE ELEMENT. 16MM OR SUPER 8MM FILMS ONLY, NO DIGITAL
VIDEO. WE BELIEVE THERE IS A MAGIC IN SEEING THE FILM PRINT. THERE IS A
PRESENCE A POET HAS READING HIS/HER OWN WRITING. THERE IS A FEELING THAT
RESONATES IN YOUR CHEST WHEN YOU SEE A MUSICIAN PERFORM LIVE. EACH MONO
NO AWARE PERFORMANCE IS ONE OF A KIND, SOME PARTICIPANTS HAVE GONE SO
FAR AS TO DESTROY THE FILM WORK AFTER ITS FIRST RUN AT THE EVENT. WE
INVITE YOU TO JOIN US SUNDAY NOVEMBER 28TH AT LUMENHOUSE IN BROOKLYN.
