Toronto, Ontario, Canada: Early Monthly Segments
http://earlymonthlysegments.org/
8:00 PM, Gladstone Hotel Art Bar, 1214 Queen Street West
EMS # 17 = NAOMI UMAN IN PERSON
We are very pleased to welcome Naomi Uman to town to present films from
her recent series, The Ukrainian Time Machine. These films developed out
of her decision to return to her ancestral home in Ukraine to live. The
films follow her process of assimilation into a small aging community in
rural Ukraine — a process that includes learning the language and
customs and connecting across very different cultural experiences. As
revealed in her previous films Leche and Mala Leche, which focused on
Mexican immigrants in California's Central Valley, Uman has an eye for
the agrarian labour practices that are often unknown parts of a
country's economy. Her life in Legedzine, Ukraine reveals an even more
localized food chain and her films follow the labour of the harvest, the
necessary pickling to withstand the winter season, and the social
occasions of the meal. As a result, the films in The Ukrainian Time
Machine are beautiful portraits of the process of creating a home
amongst new neighbors and the traditions of village life in modern
Ukraine. Programme: Selections from The Ukrainian Time Machine:

ESSENTIAL CINEMA: THE FLOWERS OF ST. FRANCIS
by Roberto Rossellini 1949, 85 minutes, 35mm. In Italian with no
subtitles; English synopsis available. Francesco (St. Francis of Assisi)
comes back to Santa Maria degli Angeli from Rome, journeying with his
friars through the rain. When they are driven out of a hut, he begs the
brothers' forgiveness for abusing their obedience. While the monks are
finishing the chapel, Brother Ginepro arrives naked again and confesses
that the previous night he was tempted by the Devil. Later, he cuts the
foot off a pig to feed a sick brother. That evening, Francesco meets a
leper and kisses him. Brother Ginepro receives Francesco's permission to
preach and arrives at the camp of Nicolaio, the tyrant of Viterbo, whose
cruelty he overcomes with his perfect humility. Francesco teaches
Brother Leone that bearing injuries and blows is an example of perfect
joy. Francesco sends his brothers out to preach far and wide.

ESSENTIAL CINEMA: HARRY SMITH PROGRAM
EARLY ABSTRACTIONS (1941-57, 23 minutes, 16mm) Preserved by Anthology
Film Archives with support from the National Film Preservation
Foundation. MIRROR ANIMATIONS (extended 1979 version, 11 minutes, 35mm)
NEW PRINT! LATE SUPERIMPOSITIONS (1964, 28 minutes, 16mm) OZ, THE TIN
WOODMAN'S DREAM (1967, 15 minutes, 35mm) "My cinematic excreta is of
four varieties: – batiked animations made directly on film between 1939
and 1946; optically printed non-objective studies composed around 1950;
semi-realistic animated collages made as part of my alchemical labors of
1957 to 1962; and chronologically super-imposed photographs of
actualities formed since the latter year. All these works have been
organized in specific patterns derived from the interlocking beats of
the respiration, the heart and the EEG Alpha component and should be
observed together in order, or not at all, for they are valuable works,
works that will forever abide – they made me gray." –Harry Smith Total
running time: ca. 80 minutes

8:15 pm, 32 2nd Avenue
HEAVEN AND EARTH MAGIC
by Harry Smith 1950-61, 66 minutes, 16mm. Preserved by Anthology Film
Archives with support from the National Film Preservation Foundation and
Cineric, Inc. "NO. 12 can be seen as one moment – certainly the most
elaborately crafted moment – of the single alchemical film which is
Harry Smith's life work. In its seriousness, its austerity, it is one of
the strangest and most fascinating landmarks in the history of cinema.
Its elaborately constructed soundtrack in which the sounds of various
figures are systematically displaced onto other images reflects Smith's
abiding concern with auditory effects." –P. Adams Sitney
