"My Tears Are Dry"
April 19, 2009 at 7PM
The Cinemateque, Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood, 6712 Hollywood Boulevard (McCadden Place and Las Palmas Avenues), California
Four young film-makers--Vera Brunner-Sung, Haeyong Moon, Erika Vogt, and Laida Lerxtundi—celebrate the commonplace and the contingent. They lead us to notice anew what we might miss in our everyday surroundings. They celebrate the memories made in a stone, in a field, in a song. Are these places sacred then? We live in a ruined paradise, and in ruining it, we have made it our home, and since it is our home, we must learn to love it and to value it. That is the lesson of these movies. – Thom Andersen
Laida Lertxundi will be premiering her new film "My Tears Are Dry" At Filforum Los Angeles. It will take place the the Cinemateque, Egyptian Theater Hollywood, on April 19th at 7pm.

The film essay is a strange beast. To simply define it as a form that foregrounds a voice and sketches a persona falls short. At the core of all essays is an interest so intense that it precludes the possibility of naming it simply and efficiently, of filming it in a straight line, so to speak. The essay is rumination in Nietzsche’s sense of the word, the meandering of an intelligence that tries to multiply the entries and the exits into the material it has elected (or has been elected by). It is surplus, drifts, ruptures, ellipses, and double-backs. It is, in a word, thought, but because it is film it is thought that turns to emotion and back to thought.

CHANNELING:
An Invocation of Spectral Bodies & Queer Spirits
*a touring film and video program curated by Latham Zearfoss and Ethan White*
Monday, January 19, 2008 @ 8PM

AGIT-PROP, 2637 University Avenue (Behind Glenn's Market on Utah), North Park, San Diego
CHANNELING is an entryway into the spirit realm and the queer body politic: a program of experimental moving image work that calls up the ghosts of the past and the specters of the future. The intent of the program is to re-imagine film and video as occult technologies that allow us to connect with the bodies, experiences, and emotions that are often invisible– ghostly, even–in everyday life. The works in the program take a personal approach in dealing with the political and historical problems that haunt the queer experience: the AIDS pandemic (Renwick, DiStefano), the body in transition (Montague),the idealized nuclear family (Pena, Robinson), and the narrow cultural standards of desirability (EMR, Moulton). CHANNELING presents emerging and established artists critically engaging with these concerns on their own campy, poetic, sexual,humorous, and even utopian terms, using a variety of aesthetic approaches such as digital video, homemade effects, saturated 8mm, home movies, animation, green screen, and more.
