Portrait in Film a three part film series presenting different perspectives on defining profile with the moving image.
*Dynamic of Glances - 7 March 2014* Dynamic of Glances is a collection of films that explore how portraiture can be developed and understood in film. The programme reveals the complex ways film can discover and capture the individual: the capacity of solitude and contemplation, penetrating the semblance of facade, exposure to the other, and understanding perspective. Programme: *Heads*, by Peter Gidal (1969) *Alone*, by Stephen Dwoskin (1963) *The Watershed*, by Alia Syed (1994) *Jane Brakhage*, by Barbara Hammer (1975) *This Is My Land*, by Ben Rivers (2006) (all on 16mm except Heads) http://www.npg.org.uk/whatson/late-shift-1/screening-portrait-in-film-dynamic-of-glances.php *Almost Out - 14 March 2014* A stark yet complex search for identity. The work highlights the fragility of facade, as personas are developed and subsequently exposed, delivering a raw and tense interaction between the three figures in the film. Introduced by Jayne Parker.

The film exposes Regnier's character through Dwoskin's gaze, and in turn reflects the perspective each individual develops of the other. This intense visual narrative is a complex dynamism of interaction and introspection. Introduced by Anthea Kennedy (on 16mm format) http://www.npg.org.uk/whatson/late-shift-1/screening-portrait-in-film-behindert-21032014.php 7pm start Free entry Further info - http://cinematographfilmclub.tumblr.com
