Essays of a City
Stuart Eagon
Sat Sep 22: 6.45pm

Portland, OR, USA
2018
1h 17m
Festival - Local Sightings Film Festival 2018: Feature Films

Shot in Portland, Oregon over a span of years on Super 16mm black and white film, Essays of a City is a rapturous exploration of the city and of cinema itself in three parts. It begins with a portrait of urban desolation, dominated by architecture and bereft of humanity. The second part is a series of monologues by the people of the city who live in the shadows of the buildings seen in the first. The film concludes with a thesis about how the cinemas unique ability to document time and space differentiates it from other art forms. With an orchestrators sense of tempo and detail, Stuart Eagon has made a constantly surprising film of rare aesthetic and even moral consciousness.

Screens with:
From Parts Unknown
(Michael T. Workman, Missoula, MT, 2018, 28 min)
A young mans complex and difficult journey through the hardships of alcoholism, depression and family loss is juxtaposed with the hope and sense of purpose that community members of Spokane, WA find in local wrestling.
