Blocking
Pablo Marin is a filmmaker and critic living in Buenos Aires, Argentina. His new 35mm film, "Blocking" (left), will be making its world premier at TIE in October.
"Made strictly by opposing AMIA's "Disaster Recovery for Films in Flooded Areas" this film was kept under water until its emulsion started to melt, then removed, tightened up and finally dried directly by the sun. The result is what you see, a film trailer, reborn from its very same ashes, in which the few small portions of "images" that remain are overcome by the freed, colorful chemicals. "Blocking" is, thus, an homage to all the footage lost by the unpredictable dangers of nature and, at the same time, a true song to the beauty in destruction."
VIP Pass
TIE is offering a limited number of VIP Passes for "The International Experimental Cinema Exposition - 2006", October 11-15. In addition to admission to every film screening (over 70 films from across the globe) and Q&A session, the VIP Pass offers exclusive access to all round-table discussions and private soirees.
As always, each filmmaker and curator that has a film or program in the TIE-2006 selection receives a complimentary VIP Pass.
If you are an outside programmer, curator, archivist, other filmmaker or just simply an experimental film lover, we encourage you or your organization to purchase the VIP Pass. Passes will be made availible for prurchase online in a few weeks. Or to order via mail at a discounted rate, you may request an order form by e-mailing Nick at (address suppressed)
The most effective way to preserve film is to show it. We hope to see you at The International Experimental Cinema Exposition.
