PENDA'S FEN - FREE SCREENING!
1974, 99 min, 16mm-to-digitalShare +Twitter. Written by David Rudkin. "PENDA'S
FEN is Clarke's first unqualified masterpiece, and a stirring argument for the
effective collaboration between writer and director that could occur in
television. The tale of the visionary maturation of a teenaged boy in the
Midlands of England, this Romantic work differs from the more realistically
grounded stories in [Clarke's] oeuvre, yet David Rudkin's script, heavy with
ideas, relies upon Clarke's straightforward direction and thoughtful but
unobtrusive editing to function coherently. The protean text portrays the boy,
Stephen, in a period when doubts spurred by visions impel him to interrogate
his identity. The episodic film shifts through multilayered themes - political,
spiritual, sexual, familial, cultural and historical, even linguistic - without
ever losing momentum. And yet, underlying all that…is fundamentally an
inquiry into English identity, a search that drives so many of Clarke's
films." -Nicolas Rapold, SENSES OF CINEMA

A SALON WITH MARY HELENA CLARK
DOORS 7:00 PM // SHOW BEGINS AT 7:30 "In the spirit of the Salon and with my
own allegiance to the fragmented film and negligible image, I'll be screening
an assembly of outtakes from my recent film rolls alongside my film from 2012
that was structured as fictional outtakes - the real thing next to its
approximation. Film critic Michael Sicinski brought this story to my attention
in his review of my film Palms: Michael Snow was asked what the relationship
was between two parts of his film and he answered "a splice." Relationships by
contiguity, resonances, and the connection that becomes the thing itself. Not
to suggest the films I've chosen fromCanyon's collection are provisional - they
sing! - but I believe the form is at its brightest when you can't quite pin
down what holds things together, even when you know its just a splice." -Mary
Helena Clark A Salon with Mary Helena Clark All works presented in 16mm.

CLASSIC FILMS BY JOYCE WIELAND
Long overdue is this retrospective screening of classic experimental films by
Joyce Wieland. Wieland is regarded as Canada’s foremost woman artist. She
produced an acclaimed body of work in a great variety of media, from drawing
and painting to quilts and film. Her work tended to be overshadowed in the
United States by that of her husband, Michael Snow, but her cinematic
explorations elude easy categorization. She gained a unique respect for
incorporating strong personal statements in her work about issues of feminism,
nationalism and ecology long before it had become fashionable to do so. Her
retrospective at the Art Gallery of Ontario was the first-ever afforded a
living Canadian woman artist. She passed away almost two decades ago, and
although a few of her films have appeared in scattered shows in LA since then,
this is a chance to see most of her finest works in one screening. We’re
delighted to have Lauren Howes, executive director of the Canadian Filmmakers
Distribution Centre, introduce the show. Including Water Sark; Handtinting;
1933; Cat Food; Rat Life and Diet in North America; Sailboat; Solidarity; and A
& B in Ontario.

7:00pm, 2155 Center St, Berkeley, CA 94704
FULL: SPACES
Three performances push the boundaries of sound, film, and movement. Julius
Smack is a statue awoken from antiquity. In vogue-inspired performances, the
Los Angeles–based artist queers the concert form with theatricality and chamber
instrumentation. He has released two albums on Practical Records. Ashley
Bellouin and Ben Bracken make music with both traditional and handmade
instruments, exploiting the natural overtones and sympathetic vibrations
generated by highly redundant tuning systems. Minimal structures and simple
harmonic relationships give rise to meditative washes of sound. Paul Clipson,
Amma Ateria, and Kevin Corcoran improvise in sound and light, bringing a
spontaneous identity to the space as filmed image combines with live
electroacoustic music. Paul Clipson creates densely layered,
stream-of-consciousness 16mm films, responding to the temporal qualities of
musical composition. Electroacoustic composer and improviser Amma Ateria,
a.k.a. Jeanie Aprïlle Tang,
orchestrates the illusion of spaces by using field recordings blended with
modulations and synthetic frequencies. Percussionist Kevin Corcoran extends the
sonic possibilities of instruments, emphasizing textural sound, sympathetic
vibration, sustained tones, and the use of found objects. (This performance
begins promptly at 7pm.) Curated by LAND AND SEA.

LUKAS MARXT: RECENT WORKS
Goethe-Institut Los Angeles and Los Angeles Filmforum present Lukas Marxt:
Recent Works In his video works Lukas Marxt deals with different temporalities,
peripheries and with artistic-contemplative observation. During his journeys
Marxt looks for traces in the landscapes or inscribes traces into the
landscapes himself. His discoveries are transferred into a cinematic language.

LIMITE, BY MáRIO PEIXOTO (1931)
As prelude to our Fall and Winter series Ismo Ism Ismo: Cine Experimental en
América Latina (Ism Ism Ism: Experimental Film in Latin America), Filmforum
presents the remarkable 1931 Brazilian experimental feature Limite. An
astonishing creation, Limite is the only feature by the Brazilian director and
author Mário Peixoto, made when he was just twenty-two years old. Inspired by a
haunting André Kertész photograph on the cover of a French magazine, this
avant-garde silent master¬piece centers on a man and two women lost at sea,
their pasts unfolding through flashbacks propelled by the music of Erik Satie,
Claude Debussy, Igor Stravinsky, and others. An early work of independent Latin
American filmmaking, Limite was famously difficult to see for most of the
twentieth century. It is a pioneering achievement that continues to captivate
with its timeless visual poetry. Possibly the Los Angeles premiere!
