PRIMATE CINEMA
Rachel Mayeri
Experimental Video 5:48 2007 Chicago Premiere
A split screen juxtaposes field footage of baboons with a reenactment by human actors, shot in film noir style. A tale of lust, jealousy, sex, and violence transpires simultaneously in human and nonhuman worlds. Beastly males, instinctively attracted to a femme fatale, fight to win her, but most are doomed to fail. The story of sexual selection is presented across species, re-mapping the savannah to the urban jungle. Primatologist, Deborah Forster, who explains their behavior in voiceover, shot the raw field footage of olive baboons in Kenya. Rachel Mayeri

THE RELUCTANT NARRATOR
David Poolman
Experimental Video 10:56 2007 (Canada) World Premiere
When Donald Rumsfeld briefed his press secretary on how to deal with the media he said, 'begin with an illogical premise and proceed perfectly logically to an illogical conclusion. Then he said, '[the media] do it all the time.' The world we are creating is a world in which the viewer is forced to suspend his or her disbelief, and at the same time asked to critique the ambiguity of the narrative presented. David Poolman
