AMERICA: FREEDOM TO FASCISM
- Sept 29 - Oct 12






U.S., 2004
Aaron Russo
88 minutes

SEE THIS HIGHLY ANTICIPATED AND CONTROVERSIAL DOCUMENTARY ON THE BIG SCREEN!

HELD OVER FOR
A SECOND WEEK!

Determined to find the law that requires Americans to pay income tax, Aaron Russo (THE ROSE, TRADING PLACES) sets out on a journey. Neither left- nor right-wing, this startling examination exposes the systematic erosion of civil liberties in America. Through interviews with US Congressmen, a former IRS Commissioner, former IRS and FBI agents, tax attorneys and authors, Russo connects the dots between money creation, federal income tax, voter fraud, the national identity card (becoming law in May 2008) and the implementation of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to track citizens. A striking case about the evolving police state in America.

MAD COWGIRL
- October 6-11




Sarah Lassez (Nowhere, The Blackout, Until the Night) delivers a star-making performance as
Therese, an ass-kicking health inspector with a failed marriage, an on-going affair with a creepy
televangelist, nymphomania, and an obsession with old kung-fu movies. Further complicating her life is a very questionable relationship with her brother Thierry (James Duval from The Doom Generation and Donnie Darko), a meat importer who may (or may not) have infected her with mad cow disease.

TRAIN MAN: DENSHA OTOKO
- October 13-19




Japan, 2005
Masanori Murakami
 105 minutes

Computer engineer Otaku (the Japanese term for “geek”) is an average young man, dressed in unstylish clothes and dorky glasses. But as luck would have it, he encounters a pretty young woman on a commuter train and saves her from a lecherous molester, falling in love with her at first sight. A few days later he receives a thank-you message from the woman along with a set of Hermes teacups. Having never had a girlfriend or received a gift from a girl in his life, Otaku seeks out his pals on his BBS website for advice using his codename Train_Man (Densha Otoko): “How should I ask her out?” Deeply interested in Train Man's first love, his BBS pals eagerly supply him with advice. Encouraged by their support, Train_Man undergoes a total makeover for his first-ever date with “Hermess”. Little does he know that he is about to ignite an Internet phenomenon...

Starting as a true story, "Train man" has taken Japan by storm, in every media conceivable – Internet story, comic, book, movie, stage play and, last but not least, hugely popular TV drama.

MUSICA CUBANA
- October 21-25








U.S., 2004
German Kral
88 minutes

Just a normal day in Havana. Bárbaro, one of the city’s typical taxi drivers, picks up the Maestro Pío Leiva (85), a star of the Buena Vista Social Club, who is late for a radio show. Bárbaro and Pío become friends and decide to put together a band with some of the best and most acclaimed young musicians living in Cuba today. All under the direction of the Maestro, of course. The film tells the story of the formation of the band. It accompanies the musicians through their rehearsals and recordings of a number of Cuban classics, as well as through their search for new songs and their own style as a band. And it all ends in a huge concert in Tokyo, where their band “The Sons of Cuba” is finally born.

Música Cubana is a film about the young generation of Cuban musicians today. But it is also a journey into this very special and passionate country. A journey into its music and into the hearts of its people, equally full of passion, love and hope.

Set against the futuristic landscape of totalitarian Britain, this adaptation of the Alan Moore graphic novel - tells the story of a mild-mannered young woman named Evey who is rescued from a life-and-death situation by a masked vigilante known only as "V." Incomparably charismatic and ferociously skilled in the art of combat and deception, V ignites a revolution when he detonates two London landmarks and takes over the government-controlled airwaves, urging his fellow citizens to rise up against tyranny and oppression. As Evey uncovers the truth about V's mysterious background, she also discovers the truth about herself - and emerges as his unlikely ally in the culmination of his plot to bring freedom and justice back to a society fraught with cruelty and corruption.

ONE NIGHT ONLY!

Relates the horrific experiences of Leah and thousands of other New Orleans residents who survived the hurricane, were promised shelter and resources, and were instead taken to a freeway interchange, penned in open air inside of military barricades for days under extreme weather conditions and subjected to flagrant abuses of their human rights. In the plethora of Katrina stories that have come out, and are continuing to emerge, there is no end to the horrors and abuses of power unleashed by that storm; yet there are stories in this documentary that may go beyond what has already shocked you about what can happen in these United States of America.

SHOEGAZER CINEMA
- Nov 18




33RD NORTHWEST FILM & VIDEO FESTIVAL
CLOSING NIGHT EVENT

Presented by the Northwest Film Center

SHOEGAZER CINEMA
Films by Andy Blubaugh, Nick Peterson, and Zak Margolis

The premiere of the new film SCAREDYCAT provides us with the perfect opportunity to take a closer look at the artists who lent their unique talents to the production. Though varied in style, the filmmakers -Andy Blubaugh, Nick Peterson, and Zak Margolis-share certain qualities: an easy pace, an introspective nature, and a tendency to trust their audiences to play close attention and draw their own conclusions. Tonight will also mark the launch of Andy's experiment in cinema in which a new super-8 film essay will be produced and posted online every single week. The first of these weekly broadcasts will be presented with live commentary by Andy and musical accompaniment by Toussaint Perrault.

HE SAID
Andy Blaubaugh

Weaving interviews and off the cuff commentary with reenactments and text, the film tells the story of the filmmaker's year in the personal ads, looking for romance but having his true love affair with the words themselves.
(4 mins.)

THE BURDEN
Andy Blaubaugh

In 2001 the filmmaker's dad sent him the camera that his mother had used to take their family pictures, with a roll of film left inside. In a series of speculative vignettes, the filmmaker presents three possible outcomes to this situation, exploring our obligation to memorialize the dead.
(7 mins.)

HELLO, THANKS
Andy Blaubaugh

Weaving interviews and off the cuff commentary with reenactments and text, the film tells the story of the filmmaker's year in the personal ads, looking for romance but having his true love affair with the words themselves.
(8 mins.)

TWO
Nick Peterson
A chronology of a stagnant relationship; one member becomes disillusioned and withdraws socially.
(11 mins.)

MUSICAL OFFERING
Nick Peterson
(7 mins.)

HORSE
Zak Margolis

In this final episode of Margolis' "moustache" series, we find the man and his "son" have moved away from the sea, far from their troubles. However, the man continues to harbor the dark secret about the boy's true identity and in the end, the two are cast into a lifetime of suffering.

MOONBABIES
Zak Margolis

Moonbabies explores the lives and family history of twins who are violently separated at birth. Their adventures and longing teach us something about ourselves and our relationship to the natural world.

SCAREDYCAT

Andy Blaubaugh

From the filmmaker's obsessive manipulation of objects to larger questions of race and justice, SCAREDYCAT examines the role that fear plays in the lives of the most safe and secure human beings to have ever lived.
(15 mins.)

CLASS WARFARE ROCK AND ROLL
- November 19


Dennis Nyback will present two rare films in stunning 35mm at the Clinton Street Theater on November 19. Each show will be preceded by ultra rare 35mm trailers for rock and roll films from the sixties and eighties.
 
The Young Animals (aka Born Wild, 1968)  An A.I.P. classic directed by Maury Dexter and written by James Gordon White. 
The Young Animals examines racial conflict and violence  between white and Chicano students
at a California high school.  It is a much better film than one would expect.  Surprisingly, quality
actors lead the way.  Tom Nardini (Cat Ballou) and Patty McCormick (The Bad Seed) are both excellent. 
David Macklin is also very good as a Mexican hating wasp psychopath. 
  
Incident At Channel Q  (1986)
This film is about suburbanites declaring war
on a station that shows heavy metal videos and the VJ who barricades himself inside to show nothing but heavy metal for as long
as he can hold out.  Metal heads than battle the suburbanites outside the station.  All of this is an excuse to show video after video of Iron Maiden,  Rush,  Deep Purple,
Bon Jovi, Scorpions, Rainbow, Motley Crue, and others.  You don't want miss any of these on the big screen including Aces High by Iron Maiden that is currently only available on the ultra small screen of You Tube.

factions of transforming robots from the planet
Cybertron, the plot also involves the giant planet

While many Americans may be "maxing out" on credit cards, there is a deeper story: power is shifting into fewer hands.....with frightening consequences.

IN DEBT WE TRUST shows how the mall replaced the factory as America's dominant economic engine and how big banks and credit card companies buy our Congress and drive us into what a former major bank economist calls modern serfdom. Americans and our government owe trillions in consumer debt and the national debt, a large amount of it to big banks and billions to Communist China.

Featured programs:

MARIJUANA ALERT
20 minutes
1970s educational chesnut about the devil weed. Full of scientific half-truths and fear tactics - it's a classic of the genre.

PCP
20 minutes
1970s educational on the ill-effects of PCP use. Shows scenerios with "the dealer" making dope scores with teenagers and a middle-aged office worker.

Educational overview of the brain's reaction to different drugs. Uppers, Downers, Coke, Crack, Heroin, Pot, etc. are given the stage.

OF WIND AND WAVES
- December 8-14




USA, 2006
David L. Brown

A documentary profile of an extraordinary 92-year-old free spirit—the surfing, sailing and soaring legend named Woody Brown. Woody has not only lived a life full of seemingly endless adventure and accomplishment – including inventing the modern catamaran and setting world gliding records – but he has also done so with a kind of selflessness, simplicity and generosity that have made him a role model for generations of Hawaiians, both sur fers and non-surfers as well as everyone who has met him. Woody is like a modern Thoreau on a surfboard, living in harmony with the world around him, alive to the possibilities of each new day, and following his own singular vision of how to be in the world. His unique blend of enthusiasm, wisdom and spiritu makes him a truly inspirational figure. But Woody’s story encompasses tragedy as well as triumph, including his struggle to come to terms with the devastating loss of his wife during childbirth, his subsequent abandonment of their infant son, and his eventual reconciliation with that son some 60 years later. These dramatic events offer the full spectrum of Woody’s extraordinary life experience.

Japan, 2005
Kudo Kankuro
 124 minutes

The directorial debut of Kudo Kankuro (who wrote PING PONG and GO) YAJI AND KITA: THE MIDNIGHT PILGRIMS is based on the 1958 film, YAJIKITA DOCHU SUGOROKU about two samurai, Yaji and Kita, who go on a pilgrimage to Ise Temple to get away from their wives for a little while. YAJI AND KITA tells the exact same story, except it's a anachronism-drunk musical about the gay samurai, Yaji and Kita, who are going to Ise Temple because Kita is hooked on drugs and Yaji wants to help him get the monkey off his back.
