This short film allows people who spent much of their lives in the old asylums to talk about their lives from admission to discharge, including institutional life, treatments, resistance and relationships.https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/35https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/58Spend the evening with a Bogie & Bacall double bill!https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/58https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/62"At last! Bogart makes love to his kind of woman!" This is where Bogie and Bacall first started, in Bacall's debut film based on Ernest Hemingway's novel – what a picture!

It's an improvisation playing with all the possibilities of live multi-projection, sound and images. From 16mm sound and visual found footage, images are shot, processed, printed, colored and 'special effected' in their handcraft laboratory. A visceral visual poetry, one that may borrow from the normal cinema, but can never be given back.

Nearly a decade ago, a terrified village in southern Mexico sought refuge in a small wooden church and awaited their inevitable fate. Until now the full story of the massacre at Acteal has never been told. "Acteal: A Massacre Foretold" is by Nick Higgins, a filmmaker and academic and is the current director of the Cultural Studies programme at Edinburgh University. Star and Shadow https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/festival/9https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/festival/33In this day and age of surveillance cameras, mobile phones and electric dreams of sheep are we not ALL filmmakers, editing the ever-increasing footage captured via our optical appendages into our own simulacrum of reality (whatever the hell that is)? No? Yes? Then send your submission in to this open-call film and video night. It just so happens we have a never-before-seen amateur film masterpiece we found in Berlin on super 8 which will honestly make you think about 'how many great filmmakers denied us their work by quitting and becoming teachers or whatever...'
