Short Doc Program
Minka
USA, 2010, 15 minutes
Director: Davina Pardo
In 1967, an American journalist and a Japanese architect rescued an ancient farmhouse found in the snow country of Japan, and their lives were forever changed. Minka is an intimate story about architecture, memory and the meaning of home. Minka is more meditation than history. Filmed just after Roderick's death at ninety-three, it uses this one house as a vessel of memory to explore the power of place and the meanings of home.
Tanglewood
USA, 2012, 16 minutes
Director: Sara Newens
Horses have an extraordinary ability to sense human emotion. As prey animals, they are constantly hyper-aware of their environment and have an incredible capacity to reflect and awaken intuition of those who surround them. Tanglewood explores this non-verbal connection within a new realm of psychotherapy, as a young woman fights an uphill battle against cancer and comes to terms with her diagnosis.
Kiss the Paper
USA, 2011, 19 minutes
Director: Fiona Otway
Kiss the Paper contemplates the revival of the nearly obsolete, centuries-old craft of letterpress printing. As the few remaining letterpress print shops close down, younger generations are eagerly collecting the relics of dusty equipment and nearly-forgotten letterpress lore that are left behind. In an increasingly digital world that prizes instaneity and economies of scale, why preserve a slow, heavy, imperfect, and dying craft? What does this wave of idealism and nostalgia reveal to us about a broader cultural transformation that is underway?
Flying Anne
The Netherlands, 2010, 21 minutes
Director: Catherine Van Campen
Eleven-year-old Anne is a beautiful girl, the kind of girl you can't take your eyes off ofand the longer you look, the more you see her tics. Anne suffers from Tourette's syndrome, and although she tries to keep her tics in check, it isn't easy. Anne prefers 'flying' through life, so you won't notice anything. When flying, she's at her best.
