SATURDAY, AUGUST 25 - 7:00 PM

PARTHENON
Dir. Frank Mosley, 2017.
USA, 14 mins.

A naked body moves a stranger to empathy. PARTHENON is a slippery, dizzying diptych that questions the limits of our perception.

CASA DE MI MADRE
Dir. Frank Mosley, 2016.
USA, 12 mins.

A fire rages in the woods near a village. This fire triggers a memory in a lonely, middle-aged woman. And this memory pushes her to utter aloud the words she's always wanted to say.

Produced in Cuba with the support of Black Factory Cinema and Escuela Internacionales de Cine y Tv in San Antonio de los Banos (EICTV), and made under the guidance of master filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami. The result of Mosley's selection as a participant in the 2016 Workshop for Auteurs, the film examines grief, transference, and the consequences of role-playing.

SPIDER VEINS
Dir. Frank Mosley, 2016.
USA, 15 mins.

Two women, seemingly strangers, confront one another in an old house with conflicting memories of the same dress. By turns mysterious and shocking, the film's fragile narrative begins to unravel, but the women's relationship teeters closer to truth.

Loosely inspired by Ibsen's "A Doll's House'', SPIDER VEINS is a mercurial investigation into varying levels of everyday artifice.
