THE WAYFINDERS
narration about Syria, Lebonan and Palestine plays over images taken from a 20 year old flight simulaor.
Pretentous and wildly too long. This was the tough slog of the Currents shorts
NATIONAL SEATING
A man talks about his jobs while we look at a school bus
Why?
FLESH OF THE MOUNTAIN
Negative monchrome images charts the land taken from the indigenious people of California.
Its a heady trip that leaves your with much to ponder. that it is in the middle of a shorts collection works against it because you need time to process it and that a film follow it blunts it.
ELEGY FOR THE FORGOTTEN, ON AN ENDLESS WAR
A face punch film about the seeming endless cycle of violence in Iran via war and their own crack downs. Its a soul crushing look at war through unfiltered eyes that leaves you staring at the screen.
One of the best films you'll see all year
