  • What Lines Would You Cross for a Better Life?
    What lines would you cross for a better life? [email protected] ILEGALES – What lines would you cross for a better life? Set in the sweltering desert of the Southwest U.S., ILEGALES defines the raw motives and realities of illegal immigration on the U.S./Mexico border. Written from the perspective of the immigrants themselves, the film captures the social, economic, and political impact of this difficult issue from all sides. Crisscrossing the border, it depicts the businesses that enable illegal immigrants, the officials who track them, and the social institutions that unwittingly support them. Through heartbreak and hope, four separate, but connected stories weave together, asking – What lines would you cross for a better life? Principle photography for ILEGALES was shot in July and August of 2009, and included a dozen locations across Southern New Mexico. The ensemble of characters illuminates the lives of illegal immigrants with authenticity and dignity. Their plight is our own: The struggle to feed one’s family, the need for adequate health care, the ability to attain respect and love in a world filled with anger and fear. The characters are forced to make tough choices in their quest for a better life, but such decisions always come at a high cost. After watching ILEGALES, our hope is that viewers will question their ideas regarding immigrants, and view them in a more human light. STARRING Shirley Rumierk, Luis Bordonada, Omar Leyva, Salome Martinez and Art LaFleur STORY Marco Shepherd SCREENPLAY Carl Lucas DIRECTOR Ric Dupont PRODUCTION A Three Sigma Management production in association with Collaborative Artists and Iris MediaWorks ABOUT THE FILM ILEGALES is the story of those who seek a better life in To Work: Illegal immigrants constitute roughly 10% or more America, and was produced to spark a thoughtful discussion of the labor force in Arizona, California and Nevada, and on border issues.

  • CAP UCLA Presents 'Exposed: Songs for Unseen Warhol Films'
    Media Alert Contact: Jessica Wolf 310.825.7789 [email protected] CAP UCLA Presents ‘Exposed: Songs for Unseen Warhol Films’ at Royce Hall Fri, Oct. 24 Rare footage meets compositions performed live by Tom Verlaine, Martin Rev, Dean Wareham, Eleanor Friedberger and Bradford Cox Center for the Art of Performance at UCLA presents the west coast exclusive performance of “Exposed: Songs for Unseen Warhol Films” Friday, October 24 at 8 p.m. in Royce Hall. The sound- plus-celluloid stage experience celebrates the 20th Anniversary of The Andy Warhol Museum and features new compositions performed live by Tom Verlaine, Martin Rev, Dean Wareham, Eleanor Friedberger and Bradford Cox. Tickets ($19-$59) are now available cap.ucla.edu, Ticketmaster or the UCLA Central Ticket Office (310.825.2101). “Exposed: Songs for Unseen Warhol Films” was co-commissioned by The Andy Warhol Museum, CAP UCLA and BAM for the 2014 Next Wave Festival. “Exposed” is comprised of 15 short Warhol films, never before publically exhibited, accompanied by live music. The films chosen are a combination of portraits and actualités featuring superstars and luminaries such as Taylor Mead, Mary Woronov, Edie Sedgwick, Mario Montez, John Giorno, Marcel Duchamp, Marisol, Donovan, and Andy Warhol himself. This project honors the unwavering relevancy of the art and life of Andy Warhol by re-contextualizing his work in ways that resonate in contemporary culture. Five songwriter-composers representing a musical trajectory from the 1970s until today perform original scores to these rare Warhol selections. The composers and performers, selected by guest musical curator Dean Wareham (Galaxie 500, Luna), who also performs, include punk icons Tom Verlaine (Television) and Martin Rev (Suicide), Eleanor Friedberger (The Fiery Furnaces), and Bradford Cox (Deerhunter, Atlas Sound).
