17h, Cinematheque of Museum of Modern Art
RISCO CINEMA - THE KINGDOM OF SHADOWS
The latest film by Daniel Fawcett & Clara Pais of The Underground Film Studio, THE KINGDOM OF SHADOWS (2016) is a mystical cinematic experience which stirs from the darkness the spirits of our ancestors and reawakens the horror of unresolved crimes and denied desires. Shot on location in Portugal with an international cast, THE KINGDOM OF SHADOWS is a surrealist vision inspired by dreams, biblical myths, alchemy and family history.

8 PM, 992 Valencia Street
PSYCHO-GEO2:MEMORIES: SKOLLER ON HIROSHIMA + FATAL + HOPINKA +
World premiering is Jeffrey Skoller’s The Unimagined Lives of Our Neighbors, a first-person remembrance from one of the first US sailors on the ground in post-atomic Hiroshima and Nagasaki. From the very mouth of Skoller’s 92-year-old Berkeley neighbor, Joe Fischer, the tale-telling comes across in a riveting minimal mode, foregrounding the witnessing, the fragile personal narration of History and Place. In its Bay Area debut, Rob Fatal’s (in person) autobiographical Order Class Family Tribe is also a masterful accounting--of the racial complexity of his Native/Latinx family–told through sub-titles! Sky Hopinka’s Dislocation Blues also re-frames memory in the bittersweet recounting of last year’s Native stand-off at Standing Rock. ALSO: A good portion of Anton Bielecki’s own family chronicle–-a poly-vocal archival collage about his grandmother’s escape from a Nazi work camp.

NORTH SOUTH EAST WEST FILM TOUR WITH VANESSA RENWICK
An evening of Vanessa Renwick's visionary personal videos - demonstrating a wide range of formal approaches and subjects that include wildness, hitchhiking, death, nuclear power, gentrification and migration. Renwick’s films share a restless spirit, an interest in outlaw art-making, and an unflagging sense of wanderlust. Without fail, the work is intense, hard to pin down and even harder to forget. “Vanessa Renwick’s films reveal the hidden stories and secret lives that define our great national weirdness, imbued with the radical curiosity and vision of a true pioneer.” –Todd Haynes. Vanessa Renwick is the janitor and director of the Oregon Department of Kick Ass odoka.org

Here’s the NorCal premiere of Eric Saks’ Eidolon, his sure-handed desert essay on our much-missed road rat Bill Daniel!

AND Chip Lord’s What Do They Do There? on latter-day activity around Ant Farm’s Cadillac Ranch installation in northern Texas. PLUS a S8 tour of Carlsbad Caverns, a piece from Daniel himself (Slab City Guitarist), Nik Nerburn’s 14 Bales, Sierra Pettengill’s Graven Image (on the largest Confederate monument), and OZ’s forlorn farewell to the Standing Rock occupation, Oceti Sakowin Apocalypse.

1968: BLACK PANTHERS AND BLACK POWER (VISIONS OF NEW POSSIBILITIES, PART 1)
LA Premiere of Amiri Baraka’s rediscovered film “The New-Ark”! Over the course of the year, Filmforum will present a variety of films reflecting the turbulent global events of 1968, films made in that time, and works reflecting on the long-term effects and disappointments of the activist efforts and violent responses. Our first screening in the series first looks at the real Black Panthers and their actions in Oakland, through their own film, and through the view of an outside sympathetic observer, Agnès Varda. In addition, two lesser known works remind us of the cultural and student actions of the year. San Francisco State: On Strike covers the student efforts, led by students of color but joined by the full spectrum, to expand the educational possibilities at a state university. And in Newark, New Jersey, Amiri Baraka (then still going by the name LeRoi Jones), made an experimental documentary of the theatrical and political actions of African-Americans in the city in 1968. Thought lost for many years, one copy of Baraka’s film turned up at the Harvard Film Archive in 2014 and is now transferred and available for view, its vibrant colors and consciousness-raising intact for our generation. Certainly the first screening in Los Angeles since the 1970s, and possibly the LA premiere. This show curated by Alison Kozberg and Adam Hyman. Tickets: $10 general; $6 for students/seniors; free for Filmforum members. Available in advance from Brown Paper Tickets at https://bpt.me/3373885 or at the door. For more information: www.lafilmforum.org or 323-377-7238

6:00 PM, 32 Second Avenue
EC: WARHOL / WATSON & WEBBER / WHITNEY
Andy Warhol EAT (1963, 35 min, 16mm, b&w, silent) "A portrait of artist Robert Indiana, EAT is one of the classics of Warhol's minimalist cinema. As Indiana slowly eats one mushroom, the action is rendered mysterious by Warhol's decision to assemble the rolls out of order, so the mushroom appears to magically renew itself from time to time." -Callie Angell James Sibley Watson & Melville Webber FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER (1928, 13 min, 16mm, b&w, silent) "Filmed in a Rochester, New York, carriage house, this expressionist film is the earliest live-action dramatic film made by a collaboration of poets and artists in the United States. Watson devised the optical effects that distinguish the film, while Webber provided its visual design, based upon medieval frescoes." -Robert A. Haller John & James Whitney FILM EXERCISES 1-5 (1943-45, 18 min, 16mm) "The visual images in these films were created by shining light through flexible masks, so that the camera was filming direct light rather than light reflected from drawings. The results seem like dazzling neon apparitions, that were as novel and shocking as the accompanying soundtrack." -William Moritz James Whitney LAPIS (1963-66, 10 min, 16mm) "The most elaborate example of a mandala in cinema. It utilizes a field of tiny dots, symmetrically organized in hundreds of very fine concentric rings, to generate slowly changing intricate patterns…. Both structurally and visually LAPIS conforms to the circular form of the mandala; its elaborate movements belie a fundamental stasis." -P. Adams Sitney Total running time: ca. 80 min.

8:00 PM, 32 Second Avenue
EC: ANDY WARHOL: HAIRCUT (NO. 1) & KISS
HAIRCUT (NO. 1) (1963, 24 min, 16mm, b&w, silent) "A fascinating example of Warhol's early minimalist style, HAIRCUT (NO. 1) is shot from a number of different angles, each of which is exquisitely composed and lit. Warhol made at least three different films restaging Billy Name's famous haircutting parties. In this version, a slow motion haircut, sustained through different compositions and poses, is transformed into an enigmatic, homoerotic display." -Callie Angell KISS (1963-64, 48 min, 16mm, b&w, silent) "First shown as individual films in the fall of 1963 under the title 'Andy Warhol Serial,' KISS features slow-motion sequences of couples kissing, each kiss lasting for one entire roll. This version stars Naomi Levine, Gerard Malanga, Jane Holzer, Marisol, Harold Stevenson, and other figures from both the Factory and the New York art scene." -Callie Angell
