New Cineworks 2009

NEW CINEWORKS 2009
A WILD CELEBRATION OF LOCAL INDEPENDENT MOVING IMAGES

New Cineworks is an annual screening of films produced with the support of Cineworks Independent Filmmakers Society. The program represents the diverse nature of the centre by showcasing a variety of film interests and genres that Cineworks members explore and that Cineworks programming supports. The result is an innovative and engaging exhibition of moving images.

New Cineworks ignites excitement for local filmmaking and filmmakers by showcasing independent, under-the-radar cinema of outstanding quality. 2009’s program explores the spaces between experiment and narrative, film and video, humans and animals. Visually engaging and thought provoking, coincidence abounds in a cast of films that range from tongue-in-cheek social analysis to an examination of Deleuze’s movement image.

Following the screening, the audience is invited to a reception with the filmmakers and is encouraged to quench their curiosity regarding the hows and whys of the showcased films over snacks.

Featuring new works from Cineworks members Daniel Conrad, Sharon Kahanoff, Yun Lam Li, Sean MacPherson, Karen Nielsen, and John Woods; trailers by Cineworks members Brent Fidler, Ileana Pietrobruno, Chris Scheuerman, Terry Wolfe and Dale Wolff; with works produced with Cineworks’s support by Aili Meutzner + Amy Lynn Kazymerchyk, Mark Penner and Tracy D. Smith + Ian Tang.
