SUMMARY:Roof Top Films at Trilok Fusion Center for the Arts
DESCRIPTION:Trilok Fusion Center for the Arts will host a series of documentary film shorts in this year’s Rooftop Films summer lineup. The series\,  It Seemed So Real\, is a “program of dazzling documentaries that challenge our understanding of every observation”:\n\nWhat looks like a beautiful pattern may turn out to be something more ominous—a body\, a remnant of disaster. A character who appears to be a charming old man may turn out to be a potent symbol of power; a woman who seems noble and sweet may have committed a heinous crime. Your enemies may be your only saviors. But in each of these fascinating and masterful documentaries\, no interpretation settles for long. Our understanding shifts like snow drifts\, gets shattered like shrapnel\, and meaning remains elusive but persuasive.\n\n\nTHE FILMS\n\nSound of a Million Insects\, Light of a Thousand Stars (Tomonari Nishikawa | New York\, NY | 2 min.)\nI buried a 100-foot 35mm film negative film under fallen leaves alongside a country road\, which was about 15 miles away from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station\, for one night in June 2014. The film was exposed to the possible remaining of the radioactive materials. \nOn The Spot: Gaza – Chronicles of a Conflict (Eszter Cseke and Andras S. Takacs | Hungary | 27 min.)\nA Qassam-fighter is collecting the remaining parts of Ahmed Jabari’s body from his wreck after an Israeli airstrike that killed the head of al-Qassam Brigade\, the armed wing of Hamas. A Palestinian journalist who doesn’t believe in violence\, is getting a phone call\, his 8-year-old daughter was hit. A shiver cut three of her fingers off. Parallel stories of the Qassam-fighter whose dream is to blow himself up to take revenge and the journalist who is willing to do anything to get her daughter into an Israeli hospital – the only place where she can be saved. The birth of hatred and hope – the chronicles of a conflict in Gaza. \nStarting Point (Michał Szcześniak | Poland | 25 min.)\nAneta rebelled at the age of 19. She went to prison for murder. Nine years later\, while serving her sentence\, she takes up a job of a caregiver. Every day she leaves the prison to go to the nursing home to look after Helena who suffers from rheumatism. By talking to the old lady\, Aneta realizes how much she has in life and starts to believe in herself before the hard test which is ahead of her. \nBär (Pascal Floerks | Germany)\nMy grandpa’s past was always very present. It would break through in something he’d say or do\, but he’d never talk about it. Only now\, by revisiting his life and personality as I knew him\, do I feel the weight of his inheritance. \n\n\n\nShort Films Program\n\n$15 online or at the door\n\nClick here to purchase tickets. \n8:00pm\nDoors open and reception sponsored by New Amsterdam Vodka\n8:30pm\nLive Music\n9:00pm\nFilm begins\n\nSeating is first come\, first served.
