Independent ExposureWed. 11 January, 7pm & 9pm |
| On 11 January in Seattle, the Independent Exposure screening series presented an international collection of short films & videos ranging from animation to documentary to experimental to dramatic narrative. Here's a review of the program from The Stranger: * Independent
Exposure The best of
the batch, however, are three documentaries: Starlet, an unsettling meta-documentary in which
the earnest audition interviews from a gaggle of would-be starlets
become the film itself; The Beautiful and the Fine, about a soft-spoken
and misty-eyed "bio-collector" who refers to his carnivorous
plants as "fellow travelers"; and Undressing
My Mother, an Irish film about a middle-aged woman's unsentimental
but emotional assessment of her own body. This 60-minute program included short movies from Carl Nolting, Andre Silva, Kitao Sakurai, Ideagarden, Rick Kent, Brian Evans, Rob Tyler, Chieh Huang, Michiel van Bakel, Rusty Nails, Yuri A, and Ken Wardrop. Independent Exposure screens at The Central Cinema, Seattle's only movie-dinner-theater. Central Cinema offers beer & wine plus a full menu available at all shows with waiter service in the theater. Independent Exposure returns to Seattle courtesy of Microcinema International, Central Cinema and Emerald Reels. The series will continue on the 2nd Wednesday of each month with a new program each month.
