May 2021 Program Guide CONTENTS 3 WELCOME 32 MUSIC VIDS 44 AWARDS 4 SCHEDULE 36 ANIMATION 46 AREA TO DO 6 FEATURES 38 NEW MEDIA 10 SHORTS 40 SCREENPLAYS WELCOME TO THE 7TH ANNUAL FILMQUEST In recent years I’ve written: “At FilmQuest, the “we” is more powerful than the “me.” All races, creeds, orientations, and ages are welcome. If you’ve ever felt lost or forgotten, or if you’ve ever felt neglected, we are here for you where there is a place for you amongst the stars. The more diverse we are, the richer and better we are for it, for FilmQuest is yours just as much as it is mine, and together we are all FilmQuest.” I don’t think these words have ever been more true than now. After a year unlike any other, we’re all finally back together again. Celebrating each other’s achievements, discovering new voices, and making new friendships is what makes us a community, and it is also the lifeblood we need to fuel our own creativity and inspiration. Now more than ever we need each other. Thus, during this May’s festival, and whether you’re attending physically or virtually, I request that each of you ensure that you make at least one new friend for life. Find someone you can collaborate with, share secrets with, and cherish until the end of your days. After all, are you each not sorcerers? Wielders of creativity and powerful enchantments? So who better to make a conspirator with than a fellow FilmQuester, wherein you each see yourselves in each other. As you search this Book of Sorcery, don’t be afraid to indulge in the magic that is weeved by each new spell you discover and revel in them. You deserve this.

    SENE on Screen: The beloved film festival returns for its 13th year For more than a decade, the annual SENE (rhymes with scene) Film Festival has celebrated film, art and music, and this year’s festival, which takes place October 13 – 16, will screen 130 films from around the world. SENE was created by producing director Don Farias and artistic director Phil Capobres, who work to create a welcoming atmosphere for festival entrants and attendees. And their efforts paid off — for four years in a row, SENE was named one of the Top 50 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee by MovieMaker Magazine, one of the most respected voices in the film industry, and was rated one of the best reviewed festivals by FilmFreeway. The festival made its COVID comeback over the summer. “We were thrilled that we were able to host fun events for visiting filmmakers in June,” said Farias. “It’s the first time in over a year that the world felt almost normal. I was impressed with the attendance, especially since I was not sure if people were actually ready to leave their homes. It was nice to see the filmmakers meeting new friends at our networking events. Everyone was ready to collaborate and begin creating films again. We expect October to be bigger with more filmmakers attending.” SENE has been a powerful force in building community within the local film world, and while the festival receives films from all around the world, it makes a point to highlight all things local. The festival will kick off on Wednesday, October 13, with a special screening of local filmmaker Christian De Rezendes’ SLATERSVILLE, a much-anticipated episodic documentary on the 200-year history of the first industrialized mill village in the U.S., located in the heart of the Blackstone Valley.

  • The Contemporary American Horror Film Remake, 2003-2013
    RE-ANIMATED: THE CONTEMPORARY AMERICAN HORROR FILM REMAKE, 2003-2013 Thesis submitted by Laura Mee In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy De Montfort University, March 2014 Abstract This doctoral thesis is a study of American horror remakes produced in the years 2003-2013, and it represents a significant academic intervention into an understanding of the horror remaking trend. It addresses the remaking process as one of adaptation, examines the remakes as texts in their own right, and situates them within key cultural, industry and reception contexts. It also shows how remakes have contributed to the horror genre’s evolution over the last decade, despite their frequent denigration by critics and scholars. Chapter One introduces the topic, and sets out the context, scope and approach of the work. Chapter Two reviews the key literature which informs this study, considering studies in adaptation, remaking, horror remakes specifically, and the genre more broadly. Chapter Three explores broad theoretical questions surrounding the remake’s position in a wider culture of cinematic recycling and repetition, and issues of fidelity and taxonomy. Chapter Four examines the ‘reboots’ of one key production company, exploring how changes are made across versions even as promotion relies on nostalgic connections with the originals. Chapter Five discusses a diverse range of slasher film remakes to show how they represent variety and contribute to genre development. Chapter Six considers socio-political themes in 1970s horror films and their contemporary post-9/11 remakes, and Chapter Seven focuses on gender representation and recent genre trends in the rape-revenge remake.

  • 2020 Tribeca Film Festival​®​ Announces Feature Lineup
    Press Materials available here: https://tribeca1.box.com/s/74t5qily2ipxv9zdgl6g33wtofvzc8f5 ® 2020 TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL ​ ANNOUNCES FEATURE LINEUP OF FILMS ​ Program highlights politically, culturally and socially relevant films from diverse storytellers NEW YORK – March 3, 2020 – The 2020 Tribeca Film Festival, presented by AT&T, today ​ ​ ​ ​ unveiled its feature film lineup. Continuing its tradition of championing the discovery of emerging voices and celebrating new work from established talent, the 19th edition of the Festival foregrounds comedic, music-centered, political and socially-conscious films from diverse storytellers who use art to inspire positive change and community restoration. The 2020 Tribeca Film Festival will run April 15-26. The features program will include 115 films from 124 filmmakers from across 33 different countries. The line-up includes 95 world premieres, 2 international premieres, 4 North American premieres, 4 U.S. premieres, and 9 New York premieres and one sneak preview. This year's program includes 19 directors returning to Tribeca with their latest projects, and 44 of the feature films have one or more women directors. The feature program was curated from 3,385 submissions, and this year’s Festival received a record 10,397 total submissions across all categories. “First comes the story, then empathy, then comes change. When you change the narrator, you empower different voices to show audiences new worlds through their eyes,” said Paula Weinstein, Chief Content Officer of Tribeca Enterprises and program advisor. “We are privileged to have so many new and rich worlds brought to life by visionary storytellers. We hope audiences leave the Festival deeply touched, moved, and entertained.” “This year’s festival embraces the unique power of film to bring people together -- whether that’s literally the communal experience of watching a film in a packed theater, or the more intangible way a great film can make you empathize with a stranger’s struggle,” said Cara Cusumano, Festival Director.

When a mysterious light appears in the woods and the ghosts realize that they are trapped, Zel is forced to come to terms with the origins of these spirits and let go of the only family she has ever known. LONG Zel is a fortune teller. For as long as she can remember she has shared her home with a group of ghosts -- a priest, a bride, a mute child, some washed up vaudevillians and a noisy, sight-impaired group of musicians. Zel works with her ethereal roommates to help her clients. Although it is supernatural work, it is also a job as she removes cli- ents’ aches and pains, advises gamblers, and channels cranky spirits to check on their loved ones. When a mysterious light appears in the woods the ghosts realize that they are trapped and forge a rebellion. Zel is forced to come to terms with the origins of these spirits, and letting go of the only family she has ever known. Superstition, sound and the confines of Zel’s claustrophobic house feed the film’s construction, allowing the story to unfold like music. Zel’s unique existence is a lesson in hope, habit, and folklore.

  • Premieres Program Showcases Some of the Most Highly Anticipated Films of the Coming Year
    The Premieres program showcases some of the most highly anticipated films of the coming year. Catch world premieres and the latest work from established directors at the Sundance Film Festival before they create a splash at local theatres. Cedar Rapids DIRECTOR: Miguel Arteta SCREENWRITER: Phil Johnston U.S.A., 2010, 86 min., color Miguel Arteta returns to the Sundance Film Festival with a comedy about a group of Premieres insurance salesmen who use the opportunity PRESENTED BY ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY to attend an annual convention in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, as a way to escape their doleful existence . like Vegas but with corn. Tim Lippe has been living in a small town his whole life and gets a rude awakening when he arrives in the “giant” metropolis of Cedar Rapids. However, his boyish charm and innocence eventually win over his fellow conventioneers, but he becomes disheartened when he uncovers corporate corruption. When it seems his life—and chances to succeed—are completely topsy-turvy, he finds his own unjaded way to turn things around. Cedar Rapids deftly straddles that line between laughing at and with its subjects thanks to Arteta’s skilled direction and Ed Helms’s hilarious, yet thoughtful, performance. John C. Reilly, Anne Heche, and Isiah Whitlock Jr. play off Helms perfectly to fashion characters that are eccentric, yet honest. Filled with quotable dialogue and unforgettable scenes, Cedar Rapids achieves the impossible: it makes insurance fun.—T.G. Pr: Jim Burke, Alexander Payne, Jim Taylor Principal Cast: Ed Helms, John C. Reilly, Anne Heche, Isiah Whitlock Jr., Alia Shawkat, Sigourney Weaver Sunday, January 23, 9:30 p.m.
