2026 United States Super 8 Film + Digital Video Festival Day 2 – Program 1
View the winning films and digital videos of the International United States Super 8 Film & Digital Video Festival, selected by a jury of filmmakers, Rutgers University student interns, and media professionals. The festival--now in its 39th year—will feature finalist works by independent filmmakers from the United States and around the world. Co-sponsored by Pro 8mm!
Twin Falls is a filmic reaction to the attack on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. During the week of the attack, I was in Munich. I was studying German at a language school. Suddenly, classes were interrupted and all the students were called to watch on television the images of the planes destroying the Twin Towers. I had a Super 8mm camera and decided to create a film as an emotional reaction to everything that was happening at that time. The newspapers and television were talking about international terrorism, and the war on terror. Everyone had the impression of entering a new era, undefined and unknown. This film imagines a comparison between a terrorist attack and the experience of epilepsy. A man and a woman are filmed at the moment in which an undefinable force (epilepsy) takes over their bodies. The film contains images of war cemeteries, flowers and candles commemorating the attack on the Twin Towers. The film was kept secret for a long time, then it was edited in this form in June 2024. The film editing process was completed in early July. "Twin Falls" is a silent movie. 2026; 60 min.
