Don't Tell My Mother
Sarah Moon Howe
US Premiere, Belgium, 27 mins

All said and done, you should pay an additional cover to see this film. Sarah Moon Howe is goddamn stunning throughout. With that as a slight preface, rest assured it maintains a constant level of candid access to her development as a seductress, which although exposed to the viewer, draws you in even deeper. 

Sarah vaults to new levels pretty damn quickly to achieve her childhood idea of a woman's beauty, blossoming into the kind of euro-model sex bomb that skip down the street in Paris like perfectly chesty gazelles. Watching the footage of her playing "dress up" at age 8 and cutting to her playing "dress up" in the same little angel costume at age 22 .... Well come on, this woman had us beat from the start. - Roscoe Zipco


Harmony
Jim Trainor
12 mins

Jim Trainor, the Walt Disney of sexual anxiety, really blasts us with this fatal short on the behavior of animals and aboriginals. As they confess to rubbing their clitori against relatives, killing girlfriend's children, and, of course ruining everything, a fatal truth emerges on the strange nature of natural and preternatural sex. A beautiful landscape of subversive sexuality, Harmony teeters on the brink of absurdity but never goes over, even when it abstractly maps these emotional landscapes for the viewer. As Trainor's film transcends into the mystical, he never loses his grasp on the harsh, National Geographic al realities of life, whether human, animal, or cellular. - Alex Smith


Twitch
Leah Meyerhoff
East Coast Premiere, 10 mins

Meyerhoff captures the emotional conflict of   a teenage girl caught between her emerging sexuality and the reality of living with a disabled mother as she grapples with the adolescent challenge of learning to care for and to finally accept herself. - Jill Hannon



Lovers Supplant
Norma Toraya
East Coast Premiere, 2 mins

A delirious flight of fancy reminiscent at times of The Dream of A Rarebit Fiend , Lovers is an animated film with heart, care and tenderness. Melding moments of live action delicately into her animation, Toraya brings a light, aloof film with a fantastic bluegrass gee-tar for musical accompaniment. - Alex Smith
It Could Happen to You
Elizabeth Henry
NY Premiere, 9mins

Henry uses found footage to convey the underlying discordance and solitude that is an essential part of our human lives, but which while keeping us apart, will also invariably draw us back together again. - Jill Hannon

Filmmakers will be in attendance.
