The festival kickoff screening of experimental, documentary, personal, and animated films featuring beauty in the terror of relinquishing control; a maternal and nurturing gesture; some potted plants; an animated conversation; digital shapes, graphical measurements and heat signatures; an adolescent with albinism; Lawrence Jordan and Joanna McClure; Yayoi Kusama; internal tectonics; and some filmmaker stunts.

A portrait of the Teatro Principal in Camagüey, Cuba. In making this film I thought about Conchita (the house manager of the theatre) and how maternal and nurturing her chair-folding gesture was. Thinking now, I hope there is a thread of empathy embedded in the film—empathy for all the many, many theaters around the globe that are now closed due to COVID-19.
