DUST & SCRAPPER

DUST & SCRAPPER - THALIA
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 8 @ 2PM

DUST
Dust braid to memories from a writer's youth: parting with a lover and spending time with a dying grandfather. With nods to "Hiroshima Mon Amour" , "Malcom X" and " The Conformist" the director wanted the film to become a lyric meditation on loss, love and letting go. The director says " I wanted to show black people vulnerable, loving each other. I wanted to show black people in quiet reflection. I wanted to show black people living faces with dignity." Directed by Shane Book, 2013, 8 min 30 sec, USA/Canada, Drama, English.

SCRAPPER
Did you know that scrap metal is America's 4th largest export? Well, Hollis Wallace does, and he makes his quiet living trolling the back alleys of Seattle looking for cast-off copper, aluminum and other valuable metals. Hollis uses all the tricks of the metal scrapping trade to earn his living and navigate through a fascinating and rowdy world that few pay any attention to. Directed by Brady Hall, 2013, 85 min.,USA, Drama, English.
