6 Governor’s Letter

November 6, 2013

Dear Film Enthusiasts,

Welcome to the 2013 Rehoboth Beach Independent Film Festival! Delaware’s oldest and largest film festival is celebrating its 16th anniversary this year. I congratulate the Rehoboth Beach Film Society on this accomplishment, and am proud that the State of Delaware, Division of the Arts is once again co-sponsor of the premiere Mid-Atlantic Film event.

The Festival has become a grand celebration of film culture in Rehoboth and the even sold close to 19,000 tickets in 2012. The great combination of American and International full length, documentaries and short films combined with educational seminars, opportunity to rub shoulders with celebrities and family friendly entertainment is what makes the event so special.

Once again this year, one particularly deserving student film director will be the recipient of the Morris and Roslyn Fierberg Student Film Award, which will be announced at the Festival along with the audience favorite winning films this year. This year’s Country Spotlight will feature Germany in order to facilitate audiences learning about the German film industry as well as the culture and traditions of its people.

Whether you are a Delaware native or a visitor with us, I know you will be entertained and enriched by this outstanding culture event!

Sincerely,

Jack Markell Governor DONE 8

2013 represents a year of “newness” for the Rehoboth Beach Film Society. As reported last year, the Membership Committee started to work on ways to improve the membership structure. The following goals guided the process:

• Offering value and options • Modernizing to online ticket sales • Maintaining reasonable dues and fees • Striving for equitable distribution of ticket sales • Ensuring long-term sustainability

A proposed restructuring was presented to several focus groups representing all membership levels Sue Early Executive Director during the early summer. In response to focus group feedback, adjustments were made to the proposed Rehoboth Beach Film Society structure. The new design will be announced in December and launched at the start of 2014!

From a programming perspective, the Film Society has expanded to now being a presenter of The Metropolitan Opera Live in HD in partnership with the Cape Henlopen Educational Fund. In addition, the Society is conducting a Film Appreciation class for ninth graders at Sussex Academy as part of the school’s arts education component. Both of these new services will broaden the Society’s outreach.

The Film Society’s headquarters is in a building that was moved from downtown Rehoboth Beach to its current location in the early 1970s. Recently it underwent several improvements and upgrades which will help conserve energy, improve operations, and increase the property’s value. These modifications also add newness to an old building.

As with every year, this Festival will bring newness to the audience; new films, new friends, and new opportunities to volunteer.

Thank you for supporting the efforts of the Rehoboth Beach Film Society to make the best independent films accessible now and throughout the year. Sue Early, Executive Director, Rehoboth Beach Film Society

As Joe Sees It

Remember you played as a kid; you throw a dart at a world map (or variation where you flip quickly through the pages of a world atlas) and where it stopped was the place you were going to visit or move? It seems that is how this year’s Festival developed. The programming dart was thrown at the film map and the results are a wonderful variety of languages, countries, and cultures. Without specifically looking for films within one region the dart often found its way to the Middle East with films from AfghanistanThe ( Patience Stone), Saudi Arabia (Wadjda), Egypt (Uprising and Cairo 678) and Lebanon (The Attack).

A surprising destination for the dart was North Korea (yes I said NORTH) where we find Comrade Kim Goes Flying, a little gem of a film that harkens back to the good old family films of the 50s and 60s in all its technicolor glory. The opposite is the documentary Camp 14 – Total Control Zone, on the horrific conditions of a man born into a North Korean work camp who escapes and tells his story. Joe Bilancio Festival Program Director Not straying too far, the dart also landed close to home in the USA where terrific films highlight a broad Rehoboth Beach scope of subjects. Let The Fire Burn reminds us of the MOVE organization which spurred violence and Independent Film Festival strained race relations in Philadelphia. Blue Caprice follows the actions of the DC Snipers, which shook many of us to the core, and the film will do the same. A native is beautifully documented in the delightful . Those are just a few of the many films with local connections and the Regional Showcase one again brings even more.

This year’s COUNTRY SPOTLIGHT showcases Germany with a variety of genres and styles, accompanied by a terrific seminar highlighting the industry of German film. Speaking of seminars, our Friday seminar blends current events and film while taking a look at Egypt and the current and future impact of the revolution. Finally, Liane Hansen interviews Brian Geraghty discussing his path to success.

I could go on and on and on, but instead I’ll end by suggesting you grab a Festival program, a dart and throw your way to film festival bliss.

Joe Bilancio, Festival Program Director, Rehoboth Beach Independent Film Festival

About The Cover

The theme for the 16th anniversary of the Rehoboth Beach Independent Film Festival was inspired by Damon Pla’s acrylic on canvas titled “Old Man and The Must See.”

About the Cover “Old Man and The Must See” is based around the fascination of a combination of machines working together to serve one purpose, accentuating a journey, not a destination. In this case, emphasizing the work of the camera, not the subject being filmed. Damon Pla When Damon started the drawing, he wanted to combine a gaggle of old cameras to create a new entity. While composing this shape, he often thought of the sounds it would make, the movements it would create, the functions of the reels giving life to this new being...like a beating heart. This made the creation process more organic. As he sketched out the camera, the idea of a fisher above entered the stage and naturally helped enhance the creature-like quality of the newly composed camera. Suddenly, the sounds, movement and functions presented a new fascination, now that the camera lived underwater.

For Damon, the connection between the fisherman and camera is similar to seeing an iceberg. Only a small fraction of the iceberg shows above water and the bottom is left up to the viewer to imagine the rest. He says, “Although we can see the camera just below the old man’s boat, it is the imagination of the old man himself, not knowing Original Cover Art what he is angling for, is the most intriguing.”

Born in South Florida, Damon Pla was drawn to express himself through art at an early age. Upon completing various portfolio classes in high school, his advanced drawing and painting skills led him to pursue commercial and private commissions soon after graduation. After a decade of large scale projects throughout Florida and neighboring regions, the largely self-taught artist moved to Delaware to absorb a different landscape.

Thank you Damon for bringing a new style of artistic creativity to this year’s Festival.

– Rehoboth Beach Film Society

Best Documentary (Audience) – AFI Docs, QFEST, The Philadelphia GLBT & Frameline, The San Francisco GLBT

The New Black is a documentary that uncovers the complicated histories of the African-American and LGBT civil-rights movements. Packed with compassion, protest, and abomination, the explosive new documentary from Yoruba Richen examines the turbulent topic of same-sex marriage within the African-American community. Set during Maryland’s elections in 2012, this gifted documentarian captures the opinions from those for and those against same-sex marriage. SAt nov 9 12:05 PM-1:35 PM From churches to barbershops to kitchen tables to picket lines, a core group of volunteers and activists remind folks about the importance of the black voice being heard on this issue. However, a strong undercurrent emerges that examines homophobia and racism within the black community, and how the political agenda of the Christian right creeps into the debate in the name of God. Motivated by the accusations that the African-American voters were blamed for Proposition 8 in 20 0 8, Richen skillfully illustr ates the complexities and tr uths within an impassioned Regional Showcasecommunity making The New Black a film not to be missed even after the Supreme Court’s decision.

Out of the Fire The director is a former resident of DC and the subjects are from outside of Charlottesville, VA

Out of the Fire is a film that offers a rare, absorbing look into the little-known world of wood-firing potters. In the film, potters Kevin Crowe, Krista Loomans, and their crew undertake a four-day, high-temperature kiln firing, in which nearly 2000 handcrafted pots are at stake. The film explores the importance of creating an authentic, purpose-driven, artistic life through focused choices. Woven throughout are themes of risk-taking, following one’s heart, and letting go. The high stakes drive this gripping story, as nearly half a year’s worth of work–and income–are in the kiln. During this kiln firing, by design, many elements are out of Kevin’s control, yet he takes a leap of faith, engaging in an uncertain process and trusting Fri nov 8 2:25 PM-3:45 PM that his pieces will emerge from the kiln intact, and beautiful. But will they? The SPONSOR: The Rehoboth Art League central characters’ personal journeys make up the heart of the film. In addition to Kevin’s fascinating life story, the film also follows the path of his apprentice, Krista Loomans, a young woman growing into her chosen vocation as a potter, despite the economic (and personal) challenges she faces along the way. Commitment, talent, risk, and trust–all are revealed in the breathtakingly beautiful work that ultimately emerges from the kiln.

National news, an acclaimed play, and a movie produced by Gregory Peck document the protest and trial. What is not largely known about this protest and egional Showcase others that followed is the focus of this poignant and well-researched film. From

Each one followed a similar Fri nov 8 8:10 PM-10:05 PM pattern, but each protest had its own leadership and its own personality. In every community a dialogue ensued that focused on the biggest political and moral issues of the day. These non-violent protests proved to be a stunningly effective method of communication, and entertaining and enlightening material for a film. As political discussion grows in awkward fits and starts around the world, it is a perfect time to be engaged by this slice of American history.

November ~ 2013 953 Country Spotlight: Germany Spotlight: Country

COUNTRY SPOTLIGHT: GERMANY

Germany is a country well known for its hearty foods, robust beers, autumn festivals, automobiles (Beetle, Mercedes, Audi), musicians (Beethoven, Bach, Mozart) and intense political history, but not for its cinema. German culture & history has provided much material for film makers the world over. Yet German Cinema is unique in itself, with a tumultuous yet amazing history. Today, it is vibrant, alive and thriving. So this year, we want to shine the spotlight on Germany’s rich film history and its contributions to the industry and the art.

German films have certainly made their way West; they have won three Oscars for “Best Foreign Language Film” out of 18 nominations in that category: 1979: Voker Schlondorff’s Die Blechtrommel (The Tin Drum), 2002: Caroline Link’s Nirgendwo in Afrika (Nowhere in Africa) ; her 2nd nomination and 2006: Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck’s Das Leben der Anderen (The Lives of Others). The 1983 Oscars saw Wolfgang Peterson’s Das Boot (The Boat) nominated in six categories, the Oscar record for a German film.

The Berlin Film Festival, started in 1951, has survived through Germany’s turbulent years and continues to be one of the best in the world. Its “Golden Bear” award is as respected as the German Film Academy’s Bundesfilmpreis (LOLA) awards & our own Oscars®. The Lola awards receive the highest endowment from the German Ministry of Culture. The most recent LOLA awards bestowed many prizes to films in this year’s festival. Oh Boy, the little independent film that beat all the commercial films, received a surprising 6 LOLA’s including Best Film. The Best Actress LOLA was given to the star of Hannah Arendt. More Than Honey took home the honor as the Best Documentary. The 2011 LOLA for Best Picture was given to the film,Vincent Wants to Sea, which was screened at the RBIFF that same year and was one the best rated films.

German culture has influenced films made in neighboring countries, primarily Austria & Switzerland. This year’s festival will include Kuma, a gripping Austrian film. We also are pleased to have with us Professor Peter C. Pfeiffer from Georgetown University; an expert on German film, he will give you a guided tour through its history in a seminar on Saturday morning, November 9 from 9am – 10:30am in the Big Tent (bump out) (See Page 91 for more information).

So, tour through Germany, enjoy the films we bring to the Rehoboth screen…some new & a few classics…and be sure take in the colors, aromas, flavors, and fun of Germany in the big tent.
