I have curated a film night at Blim on Friday August 28th. It is also the last day that my installation "A Brighter Shade of Pale" will be up. Hope you can attend.
Flim- Projected films curated by Blim Gallery and Artist in Residence, Jennilee Marigomen
1. First film: La Jetee (1962)
In a devastated Paris in the aftermath of WWIII, The few surviving humans begin researching time travel, hoping to send someone back to the pre-war world for food, supplies and maybe a solution to their dire position. One man is haunted by a vague childhood memory that will prove fateful.
(28 min)
“A unique, powerful and visually stunning experimental film”
2. Feature: Sans Soleil (1983)
“He wrote me….” A woman narrates the thoughts of a world traveler, meditations on time and memory expressed in words and images from places as far-flung as Japan, Guinea-Bissau, Iceland, and San Francisco.

“In the entire history of cinema, there have been only two truly important, indispensable, founding films - this is one of them”
