It keeps you from reaching for the gun too quickly.” This is an intimate portrait of a true artist and avid journal keeper who translated his experiences into music.” (Barbara Pokras) AMAZING GRACE: JEFF BUCKLEY Directed by Nyla Adams and Laurie Trombley USA / 2004 / 60 minutes Community Center Town Hall 10/15 • 7:00pm W 10/17 • 3:30pm In Europe, they speak of him in holy whispers. In America, he’s a mysterious footnote. He was poised for huge commercial success, but Jeff Buckley’s untimely death kept him on the periphery of popular music. Amazing Grace: Jeff Buckley, a passionately crafted documentary, sets out to investigate the extraordinary phenomenon of Jeff Buckley, a musician of relatively modest com- mercial success, with only one full-length album, who has become a veritable tour de force of inspiration for artists across the globe. Interviews include all four of the Jeff Buckley Band members, friends, family, colleagues, critics, DJs, producers, and fans. From Sydney, New York, and London to Memphis, Montpelier, and Los Angeles, the film takes viewers on an expansive yet incredibly intimate trip through the world of Jeff Buckley, and explores how he continues to inspire his fans–from classical composers to rock ‘n roll superstars and everyone in between.

She narrowly escaped with her life; the rest of her family was not so fortunate. A lifetime later she returns to find a homeland she no longer recognizes, confronting bitter memories and educating German youth about hardships they can barely comprehend. A moving and unsentimental tale of one woman’s indomitable will to survive. (Jeff Economy) DON’T CALL IT HEIMWEH... The Greeks call it nostalgia–in German Heimweh. At the age of eighty-two, Margot Friedlander begins a journey to resolve a life long search for home and identity.

Jeannie, who refused to retire at sixty-two, doubled for Wonder Woman in the 70s, and Zoe landed the coveted job of doubling for Xena at the age of eighteen.

Brisk editing deftly blends slow and fast motion and perfectly reveals this duality. A heartfelt exploration of themes of freedom and nationhood; a cameo by the Dalai Lama is an added treat.” (Barbara Pokras) THE FORBIDDEN TEAM EAST COAST PREMIERE Directed by Arnold Krolgaard and Rasmus Dinesen Denmark / 2003 / 55 minutes W Town Hall 10/15 • 7:00pm H CFM 2 10/17 • 2:00pm Main Credits: Directors Producers Arnold Krolgaard, Rasmus Dinesen Karim Stoumann Jesper Holm, Joanna Din Mitchew Malena Belafonte Editors Mette Zeruneith Flemming Davidsen Composers Jesper Mechienburg Supersonic Screening with Devotion and Defiance There’s a revolution going on in the farm fields and on the dinner tables of America–a revolution that originated behind the closed doors of corporate boardrooms and government agencies over the use of genetically modified organisms in our food. The Future of Food offers an in-depth investigation into the disturbing truth behind the unlabeled G.M.O products that have quietly filled grocery store shelves over the past decade. From the test tube, to the farm field, to the supermarket, the film follows the personal stories of the farmers in the United States 50 The Forbidden Team is the story of a national football team without a nation. It is a humorous documentary about a cultural clash, dreams coming true, and football–as Buddha would have played it! The Forbidden Team follows the Tibetan National Soccer Team as they get ready for the first major game of their career. Invited to play against Greenland in Denmark, the Tibetan team enlists the services of a Danish coach who struggles against the odds to get the team ready. They are described as “looking like the Flanders battlefield in World War One,” their training takes place in pea-soup fog, and their field is actually part of a thoroughfare used by people and animals during and Canada who have been sued by large multinational corporations for continuing the time-honored tradition of saving seeds, and the scientists in the United States and Europe who have been censored for raising serious public and environmental health concerns. Finally, consumers are beginning to question why this has escaped the attention of both the media and the federal agencies in charge of keeping our food safe. The Future of Food unravels the complex web of market and political forces that are changing the nature of what we eat. Deborah Koons Garcia fell in love BIO with filmmaking when she first picked up a Bolex. Her educational series All About Babies, narrated by Jane Alexander, won a Cine Golden Eagle and a Gold Medal from the John Muir Medical Film Festival, among other awards. Deborah´s feature film Poco Loco “finds its groove in gentle romantic fan- both practices and games. And dealing with the Indian government on visa matters is a whole other story! What transpires is a beautiful film that paints an enormously touching portrait of a team for whom there is much more at stake than merely winning the game. Rasmus Dinesen has produced and/or directed the short films Traffic Safety, The Duel, Summertime, and United Colors of Football. Arnold Krøigaard directed the TV documentary Frederik to All Times and served as both the director and scriptwriter on the documentary AIDS is Easy to Cure.

DOCUMENTARY FEA- With Guerrilla, filmmaker Robert Stone brings into sharp focus the mood of the early 1970s, a mood that inspired the formation of the first radical domestic terrorist cell to become a media sensation in the United States, the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA). The SLA wreaked havoc on the West Coast and our national psyche for over two years, leaving behind a rich trove of paranoid recordings and scores of violent acts, including the kidnapping of heiress Patty Hearst, who would GUERRILLA: THE TAKING OF PATTY HEARST NEW YORK PREMIERE Directed by Robert Stone USA / 2004 / 90 minutes R Upstate 1 10/15 • 9:30pm W Tinker 10/17 • 1:00pm Main Credits: subsequently join the SLA under the alias “Tania.” As much a thriller as it is a document of the times, Guerrilla brings a striking, shocking moment in the nation’s history back to light. Robert Stone was born in England in 1958 and spent his childhood in both England and America. He graduated with a degree in history from the University of Wisconsin/ Madison in 1980. Eventually settling in New York City, he began making a film about nuclear weapons testing in the Pacific. The result was the acclaimed Radio Bikini (1987), nominated for an Oscar for best feature documentary. This was followed by the feature documentaries The Satellite Sky (1989), about the U.S. reaction to Sputnik; and Farewell Good Brothers (1992), about 1950 flying saucer cults. All three films are being rereleased in Hi-Def by IFC. Robert created a twenty-two-part permanent film and video installation for the JFK Library in Boston. He also served as a director of photography and associate producer on several documentaries, including the cult classic Theremin: An Electronic Odyssey (1994 Sundance Award winner).

In recent years he has shot and directed several verité films including the feature documentary American Babylon (2000), about Atlantic City. He lives in Rhinebeck, NY, with his wife and two sons. BIO Producer Robert Stone Cinematographers Howard Shack Richard Neill Robert Stone Editor Don Kleszy Composer Gary Lionelli Featuring Michael Bortin Timothy Findley Russell Little Courtesy of Magnolia Pictures “Robert Stone’s brilliant chronology of the SLA uses disembodied voices, first hand accounts and extensive archival footage to create a portrait of young people responding to the horrors of war and social inequality. With images of Robin Hood and the saga of Patty Hearst at its core, were these SLA ‘soldiers’ revolutionaries, terrorists, or true patriots?” (Barbara Pokras) 51 DOCUMENTARY FEATURES I LIKE KILLING FLIES U.S. PREMIERE In Competition Directed by Matt Mahurin USA / 2003 / 80 minutes Bearsville Theater W 10/16 • 4:45pm Upstate Films 1 R 10/17 •12:00pm behind his Frankenstein stove and holds court, serving up morsels of wisdom and wit on life, death, sex, politics, and even food.

Eschewing expert opinion, it reflects the uniqueness of its subject, employing vivid animation and experimental elements to immerse us in Henry Darger’s world and all its strange beauty. Brought to life on film, the works reverberate with universal themes: the search for meaning, control, connection, moral direction. Through Darger’s eyes, the film reveals this odd man to be Everyman. He lived a virtually friendless existence, but his imaginary life was as exciting and colorful as his real life was tedious. By day, he scrubbed floors, attended Mass, rummaged through garbage cans. By night, he ruled a world in which the forces of innocence and good fought a bloody 52 battle against the forces of treachery and evil. By juxtaposing Henry Darger’s parallel but opposite universes, the film shows how he forged magic out of the bleakest of lives, leaving a legacy that has inspired other artists around the world. Jessica Yu, a Los Angeles-based filmmaker, won the 1997 Academy Award for Best Documentary Short for Breathing Lessons: The Life And Work of Mark O’Brien, an intimate portrait of a writer who lived for four decades paralyzed by polio and confined to an iron lung. Yu’s narrative short Better Late was the debut film for the fXM Shorts Series.

BIO MAKING GRACE Directed by Catherine Gund USA / 2004 / 87 minutes W WCC 10/16 • 3:15m Main Credits: Ann Krsul and Leslie Sullivan want to be mothers together. Ann will carry the baby and Leslie will leave her job to stay at home and raise their child. Choosing the route of the anonymous sperm bank, they hope to match Leslie’s physical characteristics so that Ann can give birth to a baby with the potential to look like them both. Ann is a worrier, compulsively analyzing and judging their performance at each stage of the process. Leslie is soothing, a quiet counterpoint. Together they ride the menstrual roller coaster, until finally, one year later, Ann is pregnant. At first, both women continue to work. Free time is consumed by pre-birth activity: baby shower registration, Lamaze class, and design of the baby announcement. Between events, they argue with relatives over how to explain two mommies to their nieces and nephews. Month eight, Leslie ends her job to prepare for full- time mommyhood. Ann continues to work all hours, holding her now-huge tummy as she shuffles from job site to job site, fretting over everything. But Baby Grace is born on time, with bright red hair (a trait known to neither family). Gund follows the Krsul-Sullivan household during Grace’s first year. As Ann and Leslie make their way, we are with them, meeting challenges universal to all families and facing those unique to lesbians.

A story of fame, death, friendship, betrayal, performance, and the greatest New Wave rock star that never was! Andrew Horn’s writing and directBIO ing work has encompassed a wide range (from films on post-modern dance in 54 “Verite footage is the backbone of this harrowing journey of four Mexicans driven to endure hunger, thirst and danger to better the lives of their families. Night footage of the border crossing is especially haunting. Interspersed with interviews, some flashbacks and a skillfully executed photo montage this is video journalism of the highest order.” (Barbara Pokras) Director Tommy Davis goes along with four men from a small village in Mexico as they leave their families, embark on a 120mile trek across the deserts of Texas, and attempt to evade the U.S. Border Patrol, overcome dehydration and hypothermia, and come face-to-face with death. Tommy Davis (writer, producer, director) was born in McAllen, Texas, in 1978. He studied at the George Washington University and interned during his summers for Artisan Pictures, Jersey Films, and Miramax Films. He has written and directed several short fiction films. Mojados: Through the Night is his first documentary. “Even in New York’s new wave scene where shock and outrage was the norm, Klaus Nomi was a true pop music anomaly, a unforgettably striking performer with androgynous extraterrestrial looks and an operatic falsetto to match. Nomi was like an apparition that seemingly could have appeared at no other time, yet seemed to exist outside of time; he hobnobbed and collaborated with figures like David Bowie and incredibly, brushed up against mainstream success before his life was tragically cut short as one of the first victims of AIDS. Music, reminiscences, and neverbefore-seen archival footage fill this loving tribute.” (Jeff Economy) THE NOMI SONG New York to one of Germany’s most popular soap operas; from film musicals to music documentaries; from Eastern Europe to the East Village. His feature films include Doomed Love and The Big Blue, as well as the documentary feature East Side Story. Born in New York, Andrew Horn graduated from New York University School of the Arts, where his junior thesis film was nominated for an Academy Award. After living in New York as a filmmaker and graphic artist BIO EAST COAST PREMIERE Directed by Andrew Horn USA / 2004 / 96 minutes R Upstate 2 10/15 • 9:45pm W Tinker Street 10/16 •10:30pm Main Credits: Director Andrew Horn Producers Thomas Mertens, Annette Pusacane, Andrew Horn Cinematographer Mark Daniels Editor Anne Even Courtesy of Palm Pictures (before the age of the computer!), he came to Berlin in 1989 as a guest of the DAAD Berlin Artist Exchange fellowship program, where he has remained, working as a filmmaker, writer, journalist, and film researcher. His latest film, The Nomi Song, brings all the above together. “It somehow marks the last hurrah of my youth-in time, but hopefully not in spirit.” DOCUMENTARY FEATURES OFF TO WAR WORLD PREMIERE Directed by Brent and Craig Renaud USA / 2004 / 75 minutes Is America ready for war? Follow the Arkansas National Guard as weekend warriors are activated, trained, and finally deployed to Iraq. Observe what happens to their businesses, churches, schools, and families. This is the new millennium’s real Band of Brothers. This is history’s only film that documents a war and a group of soldiers from start to finish. Parallel Lines is an American road trip movie with a twist. The journey takes place in the fall of 2001, as filmmaker Nina Davenport drives from California back home to New York, where her apartment once overlooked the World Trade Center. The events of September 11th quickly recede into the background of this documentary, becoming instead a portal into the inner lives of Americans. The filmmaker stops along the road to talk with strangers who end up sharing their personal stories of loss with astonishing candor: A woman tells of losing custody of her children; a veteran describes his battle with post traumatic stress disorder; a cowboy reveals that his mother murdered his father. Touching on a wide range of subjects from the meaning of love to the horror of the atomic bomb, a film that begins as the story of one New Yorker’s journey home in the aftermath of tragedy becomes a portrait of American identity and history. Brent and Craig Renaud BIO are brothers and filmmakers who were born and raised in Little Rock, Ark. Since 1995, they have been working with celebrated documentary filmmaker Jon Alpert on award-winning projects in places like Afghanistan, Cambodia, Bolivia, China, Pakistan and Iraq. In addition to the Off to War series for the Discovery Times Channel, the Renaud brothers are finishing their first film for HBO called Dope Sick Love and due out this fall. “New Yorker Nina Davenport was in San Diego at the time of the September 11 terrorist attacks. A few weeks afterwards she took a six-week-long road trip back to her home town, with only her video camera and random meetings with friendly strangers for companionship. She documented their simple transient intimacies along with her own thoughtful ruminations; the result is this warm and humane essay-style documentary that engages the viewer in the kind of dialogue possible in the days after the tragedy, a poignant memento of a fleeting vulnerable communal moment that already seems relegated to memory.” (Jeff Economy) Parallel Lines is Nina Davenport’s third film. Her first film, Hello Photo, completed in 1995 and funded by Harvard University’s Film Study Center, depicts her travels through India. Davenport’s second film, Always a Bridemaid, premiered in 2000 on HBO/Cinemax Reel Life and on Channel Four’s True Stories in the United Kingdom. Davenport is the recipient of an National Endowment for the Arts grant.

SCREAMING MEN (HUUTAJAT) Directed by Mika Ronkainen Finland-Denmark / 2003 / 76 minutes W Tinker Street 10/15 • 12:30pm R Upstate 2 10/17 • 3:00pm Main Credits: Director, Screenwriter Mika Ronkainen Producer Kimmo Paananen Cinematographer Vesa Taipaleenmäki Editor Pernille Bech Christensen Music Olli Tuomainen Petri Sirviö Meet the choir of screaming men that travels from Finland to Tokyo with the goal of getting good photographs of their Japanese audience while performing the Japanese national 56 anthem. Meet the choir that screams the French national anthem at the museum of modern art in Paris even though the museum and the embassy of Finland try to prevent them… Screaming Men is a film about power, nationalism, intransigence, and firm belief in your own art. The creative process of conductor Sirviö often leads to conflicts between the choir and the outside world - sometimes also within the choir. The film follows the choir both in Finland and on international concert trips (France, Japan, and Iceland) during a time span of five years. Similarly to the choir, the documentary walks the thin line between the dead serious and the absurd. Mika Ronkainen is the most productive documentary filmmaker in the northern half of Finland. Screaming Men is his theatrical distribution debut. His previous work includes the prize-winning and acclaimed documentaries Before the Flood, Father’s Day, Oulu Burning, and Car Bonus. Ronkainen has predominantly depicted social themes. The cultural board of the city Oulu rewarded Ronkainen with the Oulu City Culture Award of 2002 and the Art Committee of the Oulu Province named Ronkainen the young artist of 1998. Ronkainen was a member of Mieskuoro Huutajat from 1994 to 1998. BIO DOCUMENTARY FEATURES SCHOOL BOARD BLUES “First God invented idiots. That was just for practice. Then, he invented School Boards.” Mark Twain WORLD PREMIERE Directed by Tobe Carey USA / 2004 / 90 minutes W The Onteora School District includes Woodstock,plus 350 square miles of rural New York. In January 2000, the Onteora Indian was removed after fifty years as the school’s mascot. A backlash followed, which The New York Times headlined “Culture War in the Catskills.” Conservatives swept into office, restored the mascot, removed the antidiscrimination policy, and began micromanaging the district. The school board was the best show in town, and Tobe Carey, and his wife were right in the middle of it all. Tobe Carey is a documentary maker with thirty years of experience.

SHOCKING & AWFUL A GRASS ROOTS RESPONSE TO WAR IN IRAQ Directed by various independent video activists Courtesy of Dee Dee Halleck USA / 2004 / Approx. 120 minutes W WCC 10/15 • 9:15pm Shocking and awful is the way many people view the current situation in Iraq and the United States.

BIO 57 DOCUMENTARY FEATURES SOLDIERS PAY “I thought I could perhaps make a difference before the election, let people see the situation, how Iraqis wanted to get rid of Saddam, but also show what war does to people.” These are the words, spoken by director David O. Russell, and quoted in an August 16th article in the New York Times, that prompted Warner Brothers to drop Soldiers Pay unceremoniously from it’s roster. The film, which was graciously given back to the filmmakers to distribute on their own, is a meditation on the current war in Iraq. David O. Russell, together with co-filmmakers Tricia Regan and Juan Carlos Zaldivar, interviewed dozens of people over a six week period, and created a chorus of voices -- including veterans of the war, Iraqis who rose up against Saddam after the last war and escaped to the US, journalists, politicians, psychologists, and even a two star general who led the Marines to victory in the first Gulf War.

Still, the Children are Here Directed by Dinaz Stafford India / USA / 2004 / 86 minutes *Indigenous language of Garo people with subtitles W Town Hall 10/16 • 2:45pm For the Garo people of Sadolpara, growing rice is a way of life and worship. As the world changes around them and they come face-to -face with market economies, they find this is no longer enough. This intimate portrait of a community presents us with a story of life and humanity that is common to us all. By following one agricultural cycle of growing rice in the Himalayan foothills, this film allows us a glimpse into a society at the edge of change and allows us to critically examine the nature of “development.” 58 “Beautifully produced, shot and edited, this study of the Garo families in Saldolpara, Northern India features extraordinarily intimate footage of a people who are the guardians of ancient strains of rice. Two elderly sisters provide a running commentary on changing ways, and the legend of the Sungod is woven throughout. A richly narrative experience.” (Barbara Pokras) Dinaz Stafford was born in London, and grew up in Bombay. She graduated from the University of Bombay and went on to complete a master degree in Psychology in Richmond. After working as a psychologist with violent emotionally disturbed children, she met diector Mira Nair, who wanted to have a child psychologist at the workshops for street children during the making of Salaam BIO Bombay! . Dinaz subsequently worked with Nair on Mississippi Masala, The Perez Family and Kama Sutra. She also did local casting for the John Sayles film Sunshine State (2001). In 1993 Dinaz Stafford made Kisses on a Train, a short film for Channel Four that won the Grand Prix at the Clermont Short Film Festival and the Audience Prize in Geneva. Dinaz commutes between India, the U.K., and the States, and when asked where she feels most comfortable, she admits–in an airplane. Still, the Children Are Here is her first feature documentary film. TROLLYWOOD “The meaning of the shopping cart, or “trolly” becomes a central theme in this refreshingly clever and straightforward exploration of the many facets of homelessness in Los Angeles. Well crafted and skillfully blending humor and pathos, this often invisible population is revealed in all its’ diversity and individuality. A rich mosaic of music adds to the mix.” (Barbara Pokras) Seizing on the humble shopping cart as a metaphor for the dispossessed, firsttime director Madeleine Farley goes behind the scenes to explore life on the streets with some of Los Angeles’s homeless. Trollywood presents a moving portrait, as she gives homelessness a human face, and shows that where there is great material depravation there is solidarity and hope. Madeleine Farley is a London-based photographer and filmmaker. In December 2001 she arrived in Los Angeles for the opening of her traveling exhibition Movie Tips. By this point Madeleine had added a short animated film to the show: a pastiche of Psycho starring Q-Tips. Appalled by the level of homelessness in L.A. and the juxtaposition of extreme wealth and severe poverty, she set about documenting the city’s homeless in a series of photographs. BIO EAST COAST PREMIERE IN COMPETITION Directed by Madeleine Farley 2004 / UK / 80 minutes Tinker Street 10/17 • 11:00am W She soon realized that if she really wanted to capture their humor, courage, and chutzpah in a credible way, she was working in the wrong medium. Trollywood, a documentary exposing the flip side of the American Dream and the lives and lifestyle of the spiritually rich but materially poor, was born. Madeleine Farley is currently working on her first feature, a love story set in Londons starring Lucy Davis from the TV show The Office (UK). WITCHES IN EXILE “Incredible as it may sound in 2004, there are places where the term “witch hunt” is not an archaic metaphor, but a brutal reality. In contemporary Ghana, superstitions act as a kind of social control where misogyny is a way of life, and the mere fact of being a woman is enough to condemn you to death. Through interviews with some of the thousands of “Witches Homes” internment camp residents, clips from popular witch-hunting films like “End of the Wicked,” and footage from actual witch-testing and -curing ceremonies, Witches In Exile uncovers a dis turbing slice of feudal superstition still alive today.” (Jeff Economy) A gripping story of women in Ghana accused of witchcraft and exiled to “safe camps.” Often charged with murder for “unexplained” deaths, these women are victims of widely held cultural beliefs.

It offers a disturbing and striking portrait of the exercise of power at the head of the world’s leading democracy, as well as of the unacceptable alliances that have been forged and that remain painstakingly concealed. The Bushes’ feelings of total impunity have attained their peak during the professional career and the political ascension of George W. Bush. His decision to attack Iraq and overthrow S a d d a m Hussein’s regime already appears as one of the most fascinating historical and political conundrums for historians to ponder over in the coming years. No thriller or political fiction screenplay could have imagined the workings of such an intricate plot. Unfortunately, its actors are not fictional characters but, on the contrary, a man and a team who hold the fate of the world in their hands. For the first THE WORLD ACCORDING TO BUSH (LE MONDE SELON BUSH) Directed by William Karel in collaboration with Eric Laurent author La guerre des Bush and Le monde secret de Bush (Editions Plon) project that George W.

Behind the proclaimed global strategy, we find not only considerable economic interests but also a possibly more disturbing aspect, a religious Never before in the history of the world’s democracies have one man and his team acted with such arrogance and impunity, defying international law and creating an unprecedented grouping of interests: the project blends politics and personal interests in an atmosphere of total cynicism. The latest war against Iraq, with its totally unforeseeable consequences, hides another danger, that of seeing America launch further “civilizing” operations of a similar type, imposed by force, fired by ideas that are at best naïve and at worst totally hypocritical, calculated over a dangerously short term.

NARRATIVE SHORTS TANGO OCTOGENARIO A short film by David Licata USA / 2003 / 7 minutes Tango Octogenario is a short narrative film about an elderly couple (Alex and Jean Turney) and their unique way of reconnecting. From its use of non actors to its old-Hollywood lighting, from its opening shot on New York City’s Lower East Side to its primary setting inside a ghostly ballroom, Tango Octogenario tells its story in a manner that treads the line between grim reality and fairy tale. This stylization suits the exploration of the film’s themes: the hidden lives of marginalized people, the elderly as vital contributors to society, the curative powers of art, and the power of art to forge bonds. Its most salient characteristic, the portrayal of seniors as active, vibrant, and independent, is a much-needed antidote to the stereotypical representations of America’s graying population.

An unusual American in that he has lived his entire life in the same valley in which he was born, Morton is a charming, witty, and philosophical man. On a beautiful autumn day, Morton relates stories of family history, tells local lore of Platte Clove, and chats with Susan Mayr, a painter participating in the Artists Residency Program run by the Catskill Center for Conservation and Development. Morton talks of his great-grandmother, who was a Native American plant healer from Tannersville; about the origins of the name of Codfish Point; and about the strangest incident that ever occurred in his long life.

Jeremy & Jacob Taylor, 10 years old, Jacob older by 20 seconds, 2001 from the film Twins Photo by Martin Bell TWINS Directed by Martin Bell USA / 2003 / 17 minutes Shot in Charleston, South Carolina, Scattered Smothered Covered explores Waffle House, a Southern institution. Combining fly-on-thewall observation with interviews of employees, regulars, and passersby, this short documentary shows the kitschy decor, greasy food, and unique mix of people that make Waffle House both an example of and a challenge to the stereotyped notions of the South, where race is always but never an issue and people’s candor starts to seep through the polite veneer. This film was made in the summer of 2002 when my wife, Mary Ellen Mark, was completing the photography for her new book on twins. Mary Ellen’s studio was a tent, pitched on a volleyball court, at the Twins Days Festival in Twinsburg, Ohio. When Mary Ellen had finished photographing a set of twins we’d take them behind the backdrop to a small studio, where we had positioned two cameras and a sound recorder, and there we asked each set of twins twenty questions. This film is constructed from their answers. 75 SHORTS COMING OF AGE GLASS JAW (LASILEUKA) Directed by Zaida Bergroth FLAVIO Finland / 2004 / 39 minutes GLASS JAW (LASILEUKA) Marianne, fifteen, is a skillful shoplifter and a promising boxer.

Moved by the performance of an Anarchist Ballerina distributing antiestablishment propaganda to children, he begins to examine his own place in the world. Swept up in an Anti-Nationalism movement, our hero curiously finds himself at the forefront. The JayWalker continues his fight against urban congestion but has found a muse in the Ballerina. Within the frenetic hoofing of a ska show they find tranquility and love. Inspired to greatness, the JayWalker attempts the ultimate denial of traffic. Will he become the master or will he be mowed down by the unstoppable force of vehicular transportation?

These partnerships and their story lines developed around lasting, personal relationships, based on mutual trust and shared intimacy. The photographs take us behind the scenes to some of the most important movie sets of our time, including On the Waterfront, The Seven Year Itch, Superman, Suddenly, Last Summer, Notorious, and powerful picture legends such as Clint Eastwood, Marilyn Monroe, Ingrid Bergman, James Dean, and Clark Gable, among many others.

Fisher Center for the Performing Arts at Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson. by the bluegrass playing of Flatt and Scruggs. He began experimenting with playing bebop on the banjo in high school. In 1982, he joined the progressive bluegrass band New Grass Revival, where he made a name for himself in the bluegrass world. In 1989 he formed the Flecktones, and the following year they released a self-titled album. The music was dubbed “blu-bop” – a 2002 recipients of its prestigious “genius” grants. Fruitful collaborations are the cornerstone of Meyer’s work. The most recent example was the organization of a quartet completed by violinist Joshua Bell and legendary bluegrass musicians Sam Bush and Mike Marshall. Shortly before this collaboration, Meyer was involved in an inventive trio project with Béla Fleck on banjo and Mike Marshall on mandolin, performing original compositions marrying bluegrass, classical, and other traditional styles. Earlier in Meyer’s career, from 1986 to 1992, he was a member of the progressive bluegrass band Strength in Numbers, whose members included Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas, Béla Fleck, and Mark O’Connor. Meyer began studying bass at the age of five under the instruction of his father, and went on to study with Stuart Sankey. In 1994 he became the only bassist to ever receive the Avery Fisher Career Grant, and in 2000 became the only bassist to receive the Avery Fisher Prize. The evening’s program, which will be announced from the stage, will include original works by Fleck and Meyer as well as classical selections, including pieces from the duo’s recently released, critically acclaimed album Music for Two and Fleck’s multiple Grammy Awardwinning recording Perpetual Motion.

Recognized today as one of the East Village’s favorite performers and a top 40 artist in Ireland, Geary started out playing with Jeff Buckley at the legendary Café Sin-e and has since shared stages with Elvis Costello, The Pretenders, Coldplay, and Sinead O’Connor. Booker Kio Novina calls Geary “one of the best acts around.” Film/TV producer Gill Holland became so enamored with Mark’s music that he started sonaBLAST! Records. Citysearch says Mark is “part unself-righteous Elliot Smith, part multi-faceted Van Morrison” and that he “touches the heart the way David Gray wishes he could.” Time Out Magazine calls him “an engaging singer/songwriter…(who) writes delicate songs about love and defiance… recalls performers such as Richard Thompson and John Lennon.” Duo Loco, Jazz Maniacs; Mark Dziuba & Studio Stu This eccentric jazz duo takes the very best in classic jazz and originals, and twists and bends them into what they call ‘evocative jazz, exotic lounge’. In this ‘duo virtuosi’, nothing is sacred… improv is rampant… lyrics are changed at will… notes and chords are bent and perverted… familiar languages are obliterated… harmonies are sweet and sour perfection… tunes are put through a fun house mirror, and yet, serious, sophisticated and uncompromising in execution. The union is one in-tune, out-of-tune, offbeat outfit. Mark Dziuba, guitar wizard and director of jazz studies at SUNY New Paltz, moves with grace through impossible chord changes and rapid fire riffs on his 1961 stratocaster, transforming these classic tunes into something more… a sort of ‘light shift’ in tone and nuance, going beyond the music’s original intent. And, as a composer, he brings a fresh, complex virtuosity to a seemingly inexhaustible genre. Studio Stu, with his state-of-the-art washtub bass, unique Brooklyn humor, and unusual, hypnotic vocals, is a master...a one string wonder, combining a traditional folk instrument and a classic music form, to create a third thing (one we haven’t quite figured out what to call yet)… fearless in delivery and willing to navigate uncharted paths through the improvisational wilderness; he is ‘el ultimo hombre del lounge.’ While at the Woodstock Film Festival, make sure to check out the many musicians who will be performing at local venues including open mic with Jerry Mitnick, Friday and Saturday evening at the Colony Cafe. For up-to-date info about musical events, visit www.woodstockfestival.com Laurel Masse Laurel Massé, founding member of Grammy award-winning vocal group Manhattan Transfer, toured internationally for seven years with the group and recorded five albums. In 1979, a serious automobile accident forced her departure. After two years of convalescence, she began touring again both in the States and in Europe. She has released four solo CDs. The first two, Alone Together and Easy Living, both hit the Billboard Jazz charts; the third, Again, was a People magazine pick. Feather and Bone, her 2000 release, was picked by audiophile magazine The Absolute Sound as “a recording of extraordinary musical and sonic value.” Equally at ease singing with a trio or with an orchestra, equally spellbinding singing an impassioned ballad, a unaccompanied Bach cello suite, or a swinging vocal improv, Ms. Massé is a singer of rare intuition and taste. Possessor of what some critics have called “the perfect voice,” she is one of the premiere jazz and cabaret artists of her generation.

Origins of Film Story — Part II Reviving last year’s successful and popular panel, industry professionals and independent mavericks will discuss the impetus and inspiration for their screenplays.

In the past year, documentaries have looked inside the decision to invade Iraq and at corporate control of everything from food to media, and audiences have piled in. Earlier documentaries preached to the choir, because the choir was the only audience they reached. But with dogged investigation and satire, these new films seem to have tapped into a new public, or at least broadened the documentary audience beyond anyone’s expectations. And John Sayles’s Silver City shows that politics on the screen isn’t limited to documentaries. Is this just an election year phenomenon? Are the films filling a gap where serious journalism used to be? Or are they just good films? Will it matter in November? Moderated: David D’Arcy (film and entertainment commentator, NPR).
