Nuestra Tierra (Our Land)
July 11-19
The first feature-length documentary from acclaimed Argentine auteur Lucrecia Martel, Nuestra Tierra (Our Land) uses the death of an indigenous leader to take a cold, hard look at the racist foundations on which her country has been built.
Blue Heron
July 11-19
Described by writer-director Sophy Romvari as her attempt to "capture just how fallible memory is," her feature film debut Blue Heron pushes the boundaries of temporal filmmaking as it traces both a fissure point for a fragile family and the ultimate strength of the ties that bind.
Mother Mary
July 12-19
Not a ghost story or a love story, but certainly residing in that realm, Mother Mary, David Lowery's latest cinematic conjuring, combines his fascination with obsession, desire, and the supernatural with the opulent, cruel, and isolating world of modern pop idolatry.

A film screening to an empty cinema is high parody.
An ironic stab at humanity’s ultimate populist artform.
Cinema needs an audience to live.
A community to sustain itself.
Drawing power from our collective witnessing.
Our collective processing.
Bringing new life into being.
