A Film Portrait on Reconstructing 12 Possibilities that Preceded the Disappearance of Zoe Dean Drum
Director
Through a series of meticulously crafted scenes, A Film Portrait... devises a disturbing presence-in-absence concept that compel a new gaze from the spectator. The clichés of the thriller film are exploited through a series of progressive tableaux as the experimental narrative recreates 12 scenes that hypothesize the disappearance of Zoe Dean Drum.
Fracas
Director
fracas ultimately is the experience of memory on many different levels. It utilizes the still image of children with minimal digital alteration. The photograph itself will always represent the past and therefore the memory of the person it captures. The audio is of the National Spelling Bee where children must exercise their skills and memory to correctly spell a word. Yet the images and sounds of fracas are intentionally not connected. It is only when the camera zooms out from the powerful gaze of smiling children and lets the viewer in, the intention of fracas is revealed
Pinochet's Women
Director
The filmmaker juxtaposes testimonies by Carmen Gloria Quintana, an activist set afire by soldiers of Pinochet's regime, with images of Cecilia Bolocco, first Chilean to win the Miss Universe beauty pageant, being congratulated by the dictator.
