As an adjunct to Master Class: Editing with Karen Pearlman, SLIFF offers a free program of films from the Physical TV Company that were edited, and sometimes directed, by Pearlman.

Inspired by the woman who edited Dziga Vertov’s “Man with a Movie Camera” (1929), “Woman with an Editing Bench” reveals the personal impact of Stalin’s censorship of cinema on a woman navigating politics, bureaucracy, and the impetuous outbursts of collaborators to create something beautiful despite the odds.

Woman with an Editing Bench

In the early years of cinema, editors were usually women. This short documentary looks at how they wielded power — and how their work was made invisible.

After the Facts

“Plastic” is a real and surreal story of love, loss, and renewal, counterpointed by the minimalist electronic music of Micra. The work is a collision of emotionally rich psychological drama and cerebral construction — think “Before Sunrise” meets “Inception.”

Plastic

A man in white-winged angel shoes awakes in infinite black to the strains of Liszt’s “Dance of the Dead.”

Digital Afterlives

Where does dance come from? What is it for? Where does it go when it leaves a dancer's body? “… the dancer from the dance” is a documentary that reveals the compelling stories and philosophies of culturally diverse, creative, and poetic dancers of all ages.
