For 29 years our Festi­va I has been dedicated to the promotion and celebration of Independent film making as both an art form and means of enter­tainment. Being a festival com­pletely orga­nized, coordi­nated, and directed by students, we have created a film festival unlike any other. This year’s Festival renews its tra­ditional emphasis on Experimental filmmaking within all genres, and at­tempts to highlight the diversity of In­ternational film. We hope that in pro­viding a series of invaluable workshops by professional filmmak­ers, our community can take an ac­tive part in this exciting week of cel­ebrating film. There will also be opportunities for local filmmakers to sign up for one-on-one meetings with the Festival judges. Festival week is a rare opportu­nity to discover Documentary, Ex­perimental, and Narrative filmmaking from the masters -Julia Reichert, Standish Lowder, and Mike Pratt are inventors of their film genres. Their passion and dedication to the art of film is an inspiration to us all. The journey from inception to ac­tualization of our Festival has been an arduous yet at times glorious one. In Septem­ber, we met with a dedicated group of enthusi­astic HSU stu­dents planning events and strat­egies for the year. In February, We sat in a film screening room with 50 students con­fronted with the formidable task of screening 260 films, in order to select an impressive group of films to pass onto the judges. Along the way we Ranted and Chanted, celebrated Lo­cal Filmmakers, and made Wonka Bars. After much laughter and tears, we feel we have selected an exciting and inspiring assortment of films that articulate the desire and tradition of the Humboldt International Film Festival. We wish to thank Julia Reichert, Standish Lowder, and Mike Pratt for their devotion and commitment to In­dependent filmmaking by serving as the distinguished Jury for our Festival. We hope you enjoy.

But we’d be lying. Rather, ours is more of a cautionary tale: a tempest-tossed sea filled with missed classes, empty gallons of midnight oil, and countless abandoned bodies in our wake. Yet somewhere, in the debris of our madness, from the ashes rose the phoenix of this week’s festival, which we proudly present to you. Pay no attention to the trio of lunatics who linger in the shadows, turn your eyes to the screen. These shows are for you: the audience, the filmmakers, the world.

She describes her films as exploring “the intricate relationship between personal memories and broader, historical experiences. As an experimental maker, I try to make images that lead to new ways of thinking about the language of film. I am drawn to the metaphors of collage, the cinematic stirrings that occur when two disparate film images come into contact.” She graduated from Brown University with a degree in history, then went on to San Francisco State University and the San Francisco Art Institute to receive her Master’s Degree in Film. NEA Regional Fellowships have allowed her to explore her film experiments and create two of the films we show tonight: “Which Way is East: Notebooks from Vietnam”, a collaborative effort with her sister, and “The House of Science: A Museum of False Facts”, which examines the feelings she saw from interviews with women and girls.

It’s just fascinating to make ideas & pictures in one’s head visible on a big screen” Dean Snider – RULE #1: Your mother didn’t make you a luck-up, YOU DID! Stop blaming her! RULE# 2: All other events are built on this concept! Axiom A.: Be kind to your art. It Is your friend, sometimes your only friend. Like a friend even more than a lover, be faithful to your art. You may have a girl friend who doesn’t care how drunk you get and will still drag what-there-ls-left-of-you home, even when a showdown comes. Not the little showdowns: like why you couldn’t go to her office party, because you had this new film, and anyway you wouldn’t like the people there (they WORK for a living); NO, I mean the BIG showdown, where the rubber meets the road. THEN, when you’re In WAY over your head with the MAN, BIG MR. D., the old dude with the scythe; you’ll find out what sustains you. ART will save you, you THINK, as you fall Into a serious state of unconsciousness; not the kind, where you wake up In a pool of puke on the hall carpet with rug burns on your Ups. No, I mean the kind of serious unconsciousness where the only thing different between you and gravity is that gravity doesn’t pee in its pants. You thought your art would save you.Was the satori revealed In your last film going to get the landlord to unlock your apartment door. Or was ii your standing in the Art Community that was going to get you on your feet and off to the Emergency Room. You may be driven by your art, but right now, what you need Is an ambulance. II Isn’t art, but your girlfriend (lover, mate. etc.) that will save you In the end. This is not the end that has !lash forwards to the scene of your lst Farewell-party-furneral .The old guys from the Musicians Union, with while hats and hangovers, aren’t playing, NOW! This is not the happy ending of some movie. This is the REAL IT, the it where even Charles Bukowski is so scared he calls for his mommy, knowing his art isn’t going to save him. Your girlfriend will save you. She will find you in you. even though you are only able to think about bananas, and wishing that the next time you re-surface from unconsciousness, you might be able to see something besides your nose flattening; scabs already starting to form from 48 hours of uninterrupted contact with the bedroom floor. She will call for the brightly Iii ride to the hospital. She’ll be standing there in Intensive Care the next day when you find yourself lying on a starched white bed. tubes stuck into you everywhere, including your dick. She will save you, and you will think what a terrific movie this will make!

Your student-engineers for this year’s RIFF activities are Alanna Giardinelli, Heather Bash and Jordan Packer. Just nine short month ago, we were handed the keys to the RIFF engine room and asked to deliver five nights of independent short cinema to the film-loving residents of Humboldt County. The journey ahead of us appeared daunting, even to our ambitious little minds, but we had faith that the miles of track laid down by previous festival directors would lead us safely to our final destination. Along the way we managed to navigate the HIFF Express around several mountains of deadlines, through valleys of procrastination and a forest of fundraisers. We survived at least two natural disasters, and to the best of our knowledge have left no smouldering bridges in our wake. The steam-belching behemoth that has just pulled into the station is the oldest student-run film festival in the world. We are proud to have arrived on schedule, with the product intact, and our sanity in check. We hope you enjoy the ride. All aboard the HIFF Express! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597383074766-KE1APS1AMNVZJ0OIKO8B/DANNY+LOTNICK.png 2001 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597383086668-KJEHTNAEE8DYOATX1XCS/WALTER+UNGERER.png 2001 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597383036378-BM289YDM4CRVL5YZRS1I/DEMETRIA+ROYALS.png 2001 HIFF HISTORY - DEMETRIA ROYALS Demetria Royals is an award-winning independent filmmaker whose work has received support from the American Film Institute’s Independent Filmmaker’s Program, the National Endowment for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts and the Public Broadcasting System (PBS), among others. Demetria Royals was originally scheduled to participate as a juror for the 34th HIFF. However, due to an unavoidable family emergency, she was forced to back out just a few weeks before the festival. We are very soRRY that she could not attend, however we are veRy excited to screen her performance-based documentary Conjure Women (1995, 85 :00) which premiered at the 1995 Mill Valley Film Festival and was broadcast nationally on PBS in February, 1997. “Conjure Women make magic; they call forth spirits to electrify the prosaic stuff of life. It’s another name, perhaps the best name, for artists, without who’s conjuring the deep essence of life would not burst into expressive flame. In her Vivid documentary filmmaker Demetria Royals captures the heat and light created. by four powerful African American women artists: choreographer/dancer Anita Gonzalez, performance artist Robbie Mccauley photographer Carrie May Weems and singer/composer Cassandra Wilson. Royals makes us see these four in double action, as artists creating movement, sound, language and image, and as women creating themselves in the crucible of colliding cultures. In its fusion of performance with personality, Royals’ film conjures up an exciting vision of a new power being forged in the self-discovery of these extraordinary artists.” NEWSWEEK (1996). https://www.humboldtfilmfest.com/2005-hiff-history daily 0.75 2020-08-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597440886879-0N018K4AITA1NOPO9S05/FF-Program-38th-Annual-cover.jpg 2005 HIFF HISTORY - 2005, 38TH ANNUAL HUMBOLDT INT’L FILM FESTIVAL Welcome to the thirty-eighth annual Humboldt International Short Film Festival!

As the world’s oldest student-run film festival we have created a unique venue for traditional films and alternative digital media that enjoys an international reputation for supporting and celebrating independent filmmakers working in traditional, experimental, and non-traditional modes. Founded in 1967 by a group of film-loving HSU students the Humboldt Film Festival has expanded over the years to feature several days of public screenings, workshops and presentations by guest filmmakers each spring. The festival promotes the art of film, not only as means of entertainment, but also as a vehicle for self-expression and a stimulus for dialogue about social, political, and cultural issues. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597451829019-OV28Z5S0SCYDR2GHQT9I/KEVIN+KEARNEY_JUDGE.png 2011 HIFF HISTORY - KEVIN KEARNEY Kevin is an artist, business executive and screenplay writer who served on the board of directors of Public Media Works during the transitional years of 2008-2009 as the company sought to re-brand itself to become the multi-faceted company it is today.

She lived in China for twelve years and then in South Korea until she got a scholarship to study in the United States (1965). After two years she began to be aware that art was the area she wanted to get into, but because of economic considerations, she went into architecture. In late ’68 she applied to Washington University where she first got introduced to filmmaking. She had been hired to translate Leonard Henry’s solar energy’s theories into three dimensional designs both on acetate and in small model form. Then students made a film, animating it. She watched the whole process and became fascinated; however, she felt that filmmaking was only for rich kids. She finally decided to make documentary films after seeing “Seventeen Parallel” by Joris Iven. In 1971 she joined Newsreel (she was the first non-white in the entire group). Newsreel was one of the ’60s radical organizations; it produced films every week. They developed camera originals and showed them in the community to provide an alternative viewpoint on the Vietnam war, minority issues, civil rights, etc. By 1974, all white people had led out of the group. And Christine Choy became one of the founders of Third World Newsreel. Her Films include: Adopted Son: the Murder of Vincent Chin 1985, Namibia Independence Now! 1984-5, Mississippi Triangle 1982, Bitter Sweet Survival 1981, To Love, Honor and Obey… 1980, Inside Women Inside 1978.

We, the directors, cannot begin to express our surprise that we actually managed to pull off an event of this magnitude. We’ve had fun, made some friends, learned more than we ever would have imagined, and seen some really cool films. For those who are unaware, the Humboldt International Film Festival is the oldest student-run film festival in the world and runs at the longest continuously running film house in the United States. It began in 1968 by two students who wanted to bring film up to the North Coast and has grown a great deal over the last thirty-one years. This year, we continue to celebrate and share the best in student and independent films from around the world. We received over 130 films in every category, which our student screening committee narrowed down to pass on to our visiting judges, who then selected the award winners, which we present Saturday night. We are also presenting two other nights of screening from festival entries as well as films by our visiting filmmakers and free workshops during the festival week. We have greatly enjoyed working to bring you this opportunity to catch a glimpse of the rising stars in independent filmmaking and we thank you all for your support. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597363002894-IZO1ZH6DMR7P50EA4EYA/SMILEY+BROWN.png 1999 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597363015426-A1LHYFFYL24LLEQNBK4E/JOHN+KLUMP.png 1999 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597363024846-M98788L58WMW0TTX0USG/EMILY+WEEMS.png 1999 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597363113655-4RFTXG19EXF2YYFZUHLH/LINDY+LAUB.png 1999 HIFF HISTORY - LINDY LAUB Lindy Laub is an award-winning short filmmaker and screenwriter, as well as a cinematographer for a number of short films.

Willkommen. Shalom. Benvenuto. Welkom. E Komo Mai. Welcome. Bienvenidos. It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the 37th Humboldt International Short Film Festival. We are very excited to present the amazing films and digital creations that will be shown this week. The fundamental goals of our festival have historically been to support and acknowledge developing filmmakers, while bringing international cinema to Humboldt county. We strive to continue to promote the art of cinema, not only as a means of entertainment and personal self­ expression, but as a tool for inspiring dialogue and facilitating change. For 37 years the festival has focused on celebrating the art of the moving image, and this year marks a new and exciting change in the festival. For the first time we have included digital video entries and we have been excited to see submissions pour in from all over the world. We want to celebrate the artists and filmmakers and create a community of cinema that is not divided by the medium. Digital video has enabled many filmmakers with the capabilities of creating movies that may not have been previously possible, and it has made movie-making much more accessible to a broader range of people, either due to mobility issues, crew size or the ever ­changing computer software programs for editing, animation, and 3-D imagery. These are new times in cinema, and just as we have embraced independence in creativity all these years, we continue to do so today. Thirty-seven years ago, a small group of film enthusiasts had an idea. They wanted to create a film festival vibe, in this inspiring environment, and it is with great pride that we carry on the tradition of these visionaries. Welcome to our festival! We hope you enjoy what you see! 37TH ANNUAL HUMBOLDT INT’L FILM FESTIVAL FLYER https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597439843093-CRADG76D5QYZKOUIF7M4/PABLO+KOONTZ.png 2004 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597439893266-DJ20E924VDF2OFL7Z21A/MARY+CRUSE.png 2004 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597439856347-RK39GRGJ2N9ST1XQNGA6/MARIA+MATTEOLI.png 2004 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597440398123-4Y0JUR1JTZTMAHIMC0VS/GB+HAJIM_JUDGE.png 2004 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597440411031-CFW4BCO9YIR3VFLR40S2/KEVIN+PEER.png 2004 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597440450671-S25R0PU1X8W31QCCH1FK/CHEL%2BWHITE_JUDGE.jpg 2004 HIFF HISTORY https://www.humboldtfilmfest.com/2007-hiff-history daily 0.75 2020-08-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597443195378-K31MGOAU9WQND23A3PU4/40th+Poster_Small.jpg 2007 HIFF HISTORY - 2007, 40TH ANNUAL HUMBOLDT INT’L FILM FESTIAL Welcome to the Humboldt Film Festival. Forty years ago, a group of film enthusiasts from HSU set out to create an event that would bring world-class independent and experimental films to Humboldt County. The first festival attracted a little over two dozen films and the entry fee was a modest five dollars. Thousands of films and four decades later, the 40th Humboldt Film Festival continues that tradition. This year’s festival renews the traditional emphasis on independent and experimental filmmaking, while celebrating the diversity of international film. Our theme is “Expose Yourself’ – highlighting films on the edge that express fresh ideas and themes that are raw, bold and revealing. We also continue our dedication to showcasing all genres of film and video work by innovative and emerging student and independent filmmakers. All the works included in the festival competition have been pre­screened by a student committee comprised of the Spring Film Festival class offered by the Department of Theatre, Film and Dance at HSU. This year’s festival format is slightly different than in past years. The judges will be screening the entries live at the Minor Theatre, rather than cramped in our office. And we’re asking you, our screening audience, to participate in voting for the Audience Choice Award. The ballot is included in your program, please make sure to return it to us before you leave. As a festival organized, coordinated, and directed by students (with help from faculty and staff), we feel that we have created an event unlike any other. We couldn’t do it without the continuing support of our generous donors and patrons like you. Thank you for being a part of the festival and helping to make the dream a reality.

Now, in our 51st year, we continue to promote the art of film, not only as a means of entertainment, but as a tool for inspiring dialogue and facilitating change. For us, personal self-expression and exploration of the medium are just as important (if not more) as high production values and wide market distribution. Our fundamental goal over the years has been to support and acknowledge developing filmmakers, while bringing international cinema to Humboldt County. Humboldt Int’l Film Fest has the proud distinction of being the oldest student-run film festival in the world. The festival is organized by students from a wide range of academic interests, who share a genuine respect for the art of film. This year over 180 entries were pre-screened by HSU students, 32 were chosen for you to see this week. Awards are given for Best of the Festival and Best of Category, as well as locally sponsored awards: Pablo Koontz Award for Best Experimental Technique, Ledo and Vittoria Matteoli Award for Best Film with an Immigration Theme or Pioneering Spirit, and Humboldt-Del Norte Film Commission Award for Best Use of Location. This year we are honored to have Udi Aloni, Patricia Cardos, and Hal Masonberg as our panel of judges. One of the festival’s greatest rewards is the chance for student filmmakers and festival audiences to meet and speak with these visiting professionals. The survival of the festival depends upon the consistent support and appreciation we receive from the residents of Humboldt County. Thank You. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!

We are thoroughly excited to bring you a week of fantastic events that celebrate innovative and independent films and filmmakers. We have all worked very hard, had fun, met some interesting people, seen some amazing films, and learned more than we could ever have imagined. A brief look back at the Humboldt International Short Film Festival reveals an intense dedication to celebrating the University of films from around the world. We are the oldest student-run film festival in the world, with screenings at the longest continuously running film house in the United States, The Minor Theater. Thirty-six years ago, a group of students wanted to bring independent short cinema to the North Coast. That desire has blossomed into a weeklong festival including three days of screenings featuring festival entries entertain­ing and educational workshops and film presentations from guest filmmakers, and this year, a recognition of the power of film with our screening of the Argentine classic Hour of the Furnaces (La hora de los hornos). We have received some spectacular films in each cat­egory, which were presented to our student pre-screening committee for advancement consideration. We have as­sembled a panel of professional filmmakers to serve on our juror committee, which is responsible for selecting the win­ning films, to be screened on Saturday, April 5 at the Best of the Festival. The students have selected some of their favor­ites to be presented on Friday, April 4 at People’s Choice Night. We have all enjoyed working to bring you this opportunity to see some of the rising stars in independent film­making. We appreciate your support and we hope you enjoy the festival. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597384360396-7ZY6G2CVD1NXH645NDK3/DENISE+SULLIVAN.png 2003 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597384370149-8CFTDRUQZ6B89YWU2S5Y/HEATHER+BASH.png 2003 HIFF HISTORY https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597384379982-IVF1ZB67CSMO1JPW1OVO/SHELDON+HEATH.png 2003 HIFF HISTORY https://www.humboldtfilmfest.com/2006-hiff-history daily 0.75 2020-08-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1597442264490-JVWSUDIE99S7L2EW0MPG/FF-poster-39th-main-design.jpg 2006 HIFF HISTORY - 2006, 39th annual humboldt int’l film festival Thanks for all the hard work our festival screening class, faculty advisor and co-directors put in to make this year an incredible film experience.

He grew up in the Indigenous community of Portland, OR. Growing up in the Native community and in a family of artists gave him the experiences which shaped his interest in visual storytelling. He founded the Indigenous film production company Tule Films when he began his work as a freelance filmmaker working in the Pacific Northwest and realized his desire to solely work with Indigenous people. Tule Films works with Indigenous owned businesses, Tribes, and Non-profits or projects which collaborate directly with the Native community. The majority of his work, through Tule Films, is focused on education. In 2017 during the implementation of Oregon’s Senate Bill 13: Tribal History/Shared History Tule Films began working with the Confluence Project. Confluence connects people to the history, living cultures, and ecology of the Columbia River system through Indigenous voices. Together Woodrow, through Tule Films, and Confluence created a series of short documentaries called Stories from the River. The short documentaries share personal stories and insights about the history, culture, and ecology of the land and its people as told by community elders and tribal leaders from along the Columbia River. The specific themes were chosen so that they may be incorporated into school curriculums focused on Indigenous people. They continue to make short documentaries centered around the Columbia River. Woodrow is also an experimental artist working with his creative partner Olivia Camfield. His focus explores the functions and relationships between digital video and memory. Their films have appeared in the print and online publications of Artforum and Hyperallergic. Their work has screened at film events such as the Camden International Film Festival, Ann Arbor Film Festival, Portland International Film Festival, Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival, MoMA DocFortnight and others. They are featured artists at COUSIN Collective, a collective supporting Indigenous artists expanding the form of film. https://www.humboldtfilmfest.com/merch daily 0.75 2021-04-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1618851273689-ZD5GD4O9HR3HUZKHE8AJ/PO47592875-front3.jpg Merch - Collectible humboldt int’l film festival Beanie Yupoong Solid Cuff Beanie Sizes - One Size The Humboldt Int’l Film Fest (HIFF) is a non-profit organization founded in 1967 by a group of film-loving Humboldt State University students.

We cannot believe the Film Festival is here. We started planning this last August and at that point, we were focused on putting together a Virtual Film Festival with the uncertainty of what was to come with the COVID-19 pandemic. However, as the year went on there were glimmers of hope that gave light to the possibility of a limited face-to-face showing of some of the finalist films at the historic Minor Theatre. While that was a possibility that was on the horizon there was still the task at hand of screening all of 182 entries, we received this year from countries all around the world. We received films from South Korea, Iran, Myanmar, Egypt, Russia, Germany, France, Kazakhstan, Italy, Australia, to name a few. While it is always a difficult task to narrow them down to the finalist that would appear in Film Festival, we were blown away by the quality of films that were submitted this year. Also, a big shoutout to the Film 260 Film Festival students in both the Fall and Spring that helped screen each of the films. We could not have done it without you! So, after many, many Zoom meetings and hours of planning, organizing, and collaborating we are finally ready to show our community, the filmmakers, our supporters all the hard work we put into this year’s Fest. We hope the films that you see over the next week will bring you joy, open your eyes, give you perspective, and perhaps open your mind to what’s going on in the world that surrounds us. In the words of Mohsen Makhmalbaf, “We can love each other more through/of cinema.” These resonate what the Humboldt Int’l Film Festival stands for and will continue to carry forward for years to come. Thank you all for the support this year, being patient as we built out this year’s fest and we hope it’s one of the best ones yet. Enjoy Fest week and happy viewing! -Kylie Holub and Matt Brown, Co-Directors of the 54th Humboldt Int’l Film Festival. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1619882476472-QO4NPMFE9ZEQTIKZFBA2/image-asset.jpeg 2021 HIFF History - MO HARPER-DESIER Monique Harper-Desir, Mo is a multi-racial visual artist from the Pioneer Valley, Western Massachusetts.

He grew up in the Indigenous community of Portland, OR. Growing up in the Native community and in a family of artists gave him the experiences which shaped his interest in visual storytelling. He founded the Indigenous film production company Tule Films when he began his work as a freelance filmmaker working in the Pacific Northwest and realized his desire to solely work with Indigenous people. Tule Films works with Indigenous-owned businesses, Tribes, and Non-profits or projects which collaborate directly with the Native community. The majority of his work, through Tule Films, is focused on education. In 2017 during the implementation of Oregon’s Senate Bill 13: Tribal History/Shared History Tule Films began working with the Confluence Project. Confluence connects people to the history, living cultures, and ecology of the Columbia River system through Indigenous voices. Together Woodrow, through Tule Films, and Confluence created a series of short documentaries called Stories from the River. The short documentaries share personal stories and insights about the history, culture, and ecology of the land and its people as told by community elders and tribal leaders from along the Columbia River. The specific themes were chosen so that they may be incorporated into school curriculums focused on Indigenous people. They continue to make short documentaries centered around the Columbia River. Woodrow is also an experimental artist working with his creative partner Olivia Camfield. His focus explores the functions and relationships between digital video and memory. Their films have appeared in the print and online publications of Artforum and Hyperallergic. Their work has screened at film events such as the Camden International Film Festival, Ann Arbor Film Festival, Portland International Film Festival, Alchemy Film, and Moving Image Festival, MoMA DocFortnight, and others. They are featured artists at COUSIN Collective, a collective supporting Indigenous artists expanding the form of film. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/1619878891276-47ZFQ11FHOSGURCRXIDC/image-asset.jpeg 2021 HIFF History - alina As Nazis separate children from their parents in the Warsaw Ghetto, a gang of women risks everything to smuggle their friend's three-month-old baby to safety.

Traveling into it's depths, may not reveal the answers you seek. Dir. Ryan Wallace 2:09 minutes USA https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/b1e93436-9613-4f98-9b86-3069ec294384/Notice-of-Rejection-1919.jpg 56th HIFF - Experimental Program The protagonist appears to be unmoved by historical barbarism and societal injustice -- until Rejection hits home. Turning to social media, no one "likes", nor do they follow or even comment on his predicament. He calls the authorities, to no avail. Even a public protest fails to elicit a whisper of sympathy; it's time to let go, so he buries his passion. Having shed the burden, our protagonist turns a new leaf - he decides to see if rejection can be turned around, made benevolent, and perhaps even grow into something that changes his life. Dir. Steven Vander Meer 13:03 minutes USA https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f25e5e31186725bdfce6bea/14f7ea79-7987-44c7-92cc-440d36705cae/60SecThoughts.jpeg 56th HIFF - Experimental Program A new collection of anti-commercials created to question the answers.
