  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)

  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

 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

 THE COLOR OF POMEGRANATES
  by Sergei Paradjanov 1968, 79 minutes, 35mm. In Armenian with English
  subtitles. Representing one extreme within the spectrum of innovative
  approaches to the biographical film, Paradjanov's masterpiece pays
  tribute to the 18th-century Armenian poet Sayat Nova by means of a
  series of striking, mysterious, and enigmatic tableaux, evoking the
  poet's childhood and youth, his days as a troubadour at the court of
  King Heraclius II of Georgia, his retreat to a monastery, and his old
  age and death, as well as suggesting something of the nature of his
  sensibility. POMEGRANATES is arguably the most radical and visionary of
  all biographical films.

7.30 pm, 66 East 4th Street

 NEWS FROM NAVARRA: A SHOWCASE OF PUNTO DE VISTA'S ANTI-DOCUMENTARY
 DOCUMENTARIES
  Millennium Film Workshop is proud to present a program of new Spanish
  experimental non-fiction, in conjunction with the festival Punto de
  Vista, selected by Doctruck and Uniondocs, and co-presented with Pragda.
  ---The Punto de Vista Documentary Film Festival is an annual festival
  held in Navarra dedicated to forms of cinema generically grouped under
  the heading of 'documentary.' Programmed by Artistic Director Jostexo
  Cerdán, films come from around the world, with an emphasis on finding
  rarities in form and subject. The festival seeks to reward risk-taking
  and non-narrative approaches, and to uncover glints in Spanish and World
  Cinema. -------PROGRAM-----AMANAR TAMASHEQ, Directed by Lluis Escartin,
  2010, 15mins. Lluis Escartín's AMANAR TAMASHEQ communicates a highly
  political message by respectful and reflexive means, delivered in an
  intelligent and poetic combination of sound and image. Escartin lived
  with Tuareg rebels in the desert of Mali, and turned his camera on them
  in order to bring back their messages -- to the degree that the
  mistranslations of language and history allow.--------- LOS MATERIALES,
  Directed by Los Hijos, 2009, 67 mins, DVD. LOS MATERIALES explores an
  empty landscape around the reservoir of Riaño, in the province of León,
  in which the former town and nine other villages lie submerged as a
  consequence of a flood in 1987. The three members of Los Hijos, a young
  experimental filmmaking collective from Madrid, spent a year walking the
  area, and the resulting work is a spare, diffuse document of a village
  just below the surface of history. Subtitles replace dialogue, leaving
  the occasional background noise as the sole sound source, and the story
  reliant on written text. "Interesting and fearless, lively and
  stimulating, the film's purpose is the exploration of Riaño, not only to
  dismember its dramatic structure but its semantic field.... The
  recovering of village's history turns out to be impossible, just
  suggested, almost abstract, while the movie's plot drives to
  metacinematographic issues and ends -in a mysterious, strange and
  disconcerting turn- becoming a terror history." –Cahiers du cinema,
  España. ----------- Discussion to follow with Josetxo Cerdán, María
  Adell of PRAGDA, and Spanish Film Critic Manu Yáñez. Admission: $8/$6

 ESSENTIAL CINEMA: FLAMING CREATURES
  SCOTCH TAPE 1962, 3 minutes, 16mm. Junkyard musical. & FLAMING CREATURES
  1963, 45 minutes, 16mm, b&w, sound. '[Smith] graced the anarchic
  liberation of new American cinema with graphic and rhythmic power worthy
  of the best of formal cinema. He has attained for the first time in
  motion pictures a high level of art which is absolutely lacking in
  decorum; and a treatment of sex which makes us aware of the restraint of
  all previous filmmakers." –FILM CULTURE

 ESSENTIAL CINEMA: WAVELENGTH
  by Michael Snow 1967, 45 minutes, 16mm. "[It] is without precedent in
  the purity of its confrontation with the essence of cinema: the
  relationships between illusion and fact, space and time, subject and
  object. It is the first post-Warhol, post-Minimal movie; one of the few
  films to engage those higher conceptual orders which occupy modern
  painting and sculpture. It has rightly been described as a 'triumph of
  contemplative cinema'." –Gene Youngblood, L.A. FREE PRESS

 ESSENTIAL CINEMA: BACK AND FORTH
  by Michael Snow 1969, 52 minutes, 16mm. "...This neat, finely tuned,
  hypersensitive film examines the outside and inside of a banal prefab
  classroom, stares at an asymmetrical space so undistinguished that it's
  hard to believe the whole movie is confined to it, and has this
  neckjerking camera gimmick which hits a wooden stop arm at each end of
  its swing. Basically it's a perpetual motion film which ingeniously
  builds a sculptural effect by insisting on time-motion to the point
  where the camera's swinging arcs and white wall field assume the
  hardness, the dimensions of a concrete beam. "In such a hard, drilling
  work, the wooden clap sounds are a terrific invention, and, as much as
  any single element, create the sculpture. Seeming to thrust the image
  outward off the screen, these clap effects are timed like a metronome,
  sometimes occurring with torrential frequency." –Manny Farber, ARTFORUM

 NIGHT LIGHT: MULTIMEDIA GARDEN PARTY
  SOMArts Cultural Center's Main Gallery Exhibitions & Programs presents
  "Night Light: Multimedia Garden Party," a one-night-only special event
  exploring temporary multimedia abstract sound, video, and film
  installations set in the garden and gallery. "Night Light" presents
  site-specific film installations spilling through the bamboo grove and
  on monitors sprinkled throughout the driveway, as well as ambient sound
  performances and amorphous video projections. The videos all feature a
  collection of locally produced video art installations with a grouping
  co-curated by Stephen Parr from the Oddball Films archive. Kerry Laitala
  premiere's a new 3-D video projection titled "Afterimage: A Flicker of
  Life," with soundtrack by Wobbly and Laitala, additional Laitala films
  to be screened include "Chromatic Cocktail Extra Fizzy" and "Chromatic
  Frenzy" accompanied by live sound by Cloud Archive as well as two new
  installations, "Mercurial Madness" and "Chromatastic." The
  one-night-only exhibition was conceived of by SOMArts Curator and
  Gallery Director Justin Hoover. Featured artists include Mauricio and
  Christine Ancalmo, Lucca Antonucci, Paul Clipson, Jon Grover, Justin
  Hurty, Scott Kildall, Lynn Marie Kirby, Kerri Laitala, Peter Max
  Lawrence, Conrad Meyers II, Stephen Parr, Skye Thorstensen, and Bryan
  Van Reuter/Cloud Archive and a special live performance titled 100 Songs
  by Ajna Lichau and Bryson Hansen. "Night Light" investigates a strong
  local subgenre of sound and installation art in San Francisco that
  explores visual, light and sound installation art from a place of true
  abstraction, unhinging the confines of their art from conventions such
  as painterly formalism, sculptural composition, and time-based editing
  formalism. The one-night event was timed to coincide with the month-long
  exhibition "Totally Unrealistic: the art of abstraction," which will be
  on display in the SOMArts Main Gallery through July.

 CHRIS KENNEDY: EIGHT FILMS
  Made over the course of six years, these recent films by Toronto-based
  filmmaker Chris Kennedy investigate how meaning is made and how the

  variety of ways to re-see what is right before our eyes. Featuring the
  Los Angeles premieres of most of these films. Chris Kennedy in person!

  record of the 1934 Nuremberg Party rally, commissioned by Hitler and
  directed by Leni Riefenstahl, [it] is one of the most controversial
  contributions to film history because of its subject matter – her
  insistence that the film is solely a work of art and not propaganda; and
  the presentation of the subject matter – the manipulation of reality in
  this 'documentary' record. The contributions to the art of film this
  work has to offer are closely tied to the controversies. [It] is a
  masterpiece of style and editing, which in turn are the very techniques
  used to manipulate reality and create emotionally effective propaganda."
