SUMMARY:Manhattan Short Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:The 25th Annual Short Film Festival\, a worldwide event taking place in over 400 venues across six continents between September 22 and October 2\, 2022. MANHATTAN SHORT is the only event of its kind. The Final Ten screen simultaneously across the world during a one-week period\, with the Best Film and Best Actor awards determined by ballots cast by the audiences in each participating venue. By virtue of their selection by MANHATTAN SHORT\, each short film is automatically Oscar-qualified. \n\n\n\nThe Final Ten MANHATTAN SHORT finalists hail from eight countries with films from Scotland\, Czech & Slovakia\, Spain\, Australia\, Finland and Lebanon\, alongside two films each from France and USA. These Final Ten Films represent the best short films from among 870 submissions from 70 countries received by MANHATTAN SHORT for 2022\, testimony to the enduring vibrancy and creativity of short films worldwide. \n\n\n\nIf the 10 short films presented by MANHATTAN SHORT have one common theme\, it’s how people deal with adversity in its various forms. Short films like The Blanket\, Freedom Swimmer and Freefall explore how individuals react when caught up in large-scale\, traumatic events. Adversity on a more personal level is the focus of short films like Warsha\, Fetish\, The Big Green and Love\, Dad. Sometimes\, the response is laughable\, as in Save the Bees and The Treatment\, especially when even the universe seems to be against you\, as in Don vs Lightning.  \n\n\n\nHow these stories are told is varied as the directors that tell them. In short\, there is plenty of drama and comedy interwoven with surprisingly effective newer ways of storytelling like animated documentaries.  \n\n\n\nMANHATTAN SHORT also is a showcase for rising-star actors and recognizable favorites like Disney stalwart Peton List and Scotsman Peter Mullan\, himself a prize-winning director\, appearing in unexpected\, talent-stretching roles. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nThe MANHATTAN SHORT Final Ten are: \n\n\n\nDon vs Lightning (Scotland) \n\n\n\n Love\, Dad (Czech & Slovakia) \n\n\n\n Save the Bees (USA) \n\n\n\nThe Treatment (Spain) \n\n\n\nFreefall (France) \n\n\n\n Fetish (USA) \n\n\n\n Freedom Swimmer(Australia) \n\n\n\n The Blanket (Finland) \n\n\n\n Warsha (Lebanon) \n\n\n\n The Big Green (France)

SUMMARY:Smooth Talk
DESCRIPTION:Part of our July Clinton St. Resistance Series with proceeds benefiting Sisters of the Road \n\n\n\n\nSuspended between carefree youth and the harsh realities of the adult world\, a teenage girl experiences an unsettling awakening in this haunting vision of innocence lost.  \n\n\n\nBased on Joyce Carol Oates’ celebrated short story “Where Are You Going\, Where Have You Been?” and produced for PBS’ American Playhouse\, the narrative debut from director Joyce Chopra features a revelatory breakout performance from Laura Dern as Connie\, the fifteen-year-old black sheep of her family whose summertime idyll of beach trips\, mall hangouts\, and innocent flirtations is shattered by an encounter with a mysterious stranger (a memorably menacing Treat Williams).  \n\n\n\nWinner of the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance\, Smooth Talk captures the thrill and terror of adolescent sexual exploration as it transforms the ingredients of a standard coming of age portrait into something altogether more troubling and profound. \n\n\n\nDirector: Joyce ChopraCountry: USAYear: 1985Runtime: 91 minutes\n\n\n\n\nThe film’s power is enormous throughout; spare means (long-held closeups\, a four-minute take of sisterly confessions) evoke a drama that seems to have been filmed holding its breath. Richard Brody\, New Yorker\n\n\n\nThe movie is almost uncanny in its self-assurance\, in the way it knows that the first hour\, where ‘nothing’ happens\, is necessary if the payoff is to be tragic\, instead of merely sensational. Roger Ebert\, Chicago Sun-Times\n\n\n\nThroughout\, Joyce Chopra patiently and shrewdly observes the contradictions of human behavior that Laura Dern brilliantly conveys. Jake Cole\, Slant Magazine\n\n\n\nA gorgeous\, thrilling portrayal of careless childhood dissolving in the summer sun\, Smooth Talk is a landmark coming-of-age film and signals the arrival of one of cinema’s favorite stars.  Lee Jutton\, Film Inquiry

SUMMARY:Friday
DESCRIPTION:It’s Friday and Craig Jones (Ice Cube) has just gotten fired for stealing cardboard boxes. To make matters worse\, rent is due\, he hates his overbearing girlfriend\, Joi (Paula Jai Parker)\, and his best friend\, Smokey (Chris Tucker)\, owes the local drug dealer money — and that’s all before lunch. As the hours drag on\, Jones and Smokey experience the gamut of urban life\, complete with crackheads\, shoot-outs and overly sexual pastors\, concentrated into one single\, unbelievable Friday. \n\n\n\nWhile the character-driven script has a weakness for toilet humor (Mel Brooks would be proud)\, its inhabitants are given some oddball quirks and tics that keep things percolating when the plot development runs a little thin.

SUMMARY:SPELL: Sweet Slaughterhouse

SUMMARY:Double Feature: Surf II & Surf Nazis Must Die
DESCRIPTION:A summer double feature of questionable taste! See two 80’s surf cult classics for one low price. \n\n\n\n\nSurf II \n\n\n\n7:00 PM \n\n\n\nSurfing is a way of life for high school students Chuck and Bob\, who are training for the big surf competition. However\, their fathers\, sales reps for a new soda named Buzzz Cola\, disapprove of surfing as a whole. Everything is going swell until the area’s surfing population starts getting kidnapped by Menlo\, a vengeful nerd turned mad scientist\, with a particular vengeance aimed at surfers. Using Buzzz Cola\, Menlo begins turning surfers into brain dead zombies. Can Chuck and Bob thwart his evil master plan in time to save the surfing competition? A completely unhinged comedy that manages to integrate slapstick humor\, surreal sight gags\, and horror and sci-fi elements\, SURF II is an outrageous blast of 1980s excess—newly restored from long lost original 35mm elements! \n\n\n\n“We set out to make the most brain-dead movie of all time. In that regard\, I believe we succeeded.” –Surf II writer-director Randall Badat \n\n\n\nDirector: Randall BadatCountry: USAYear: 1983Runtime: 100 minutes\n\n\n\n\n\nSurf Nazis Must Die \n\n\n\n9:00 PM \n\n\n\nFrom the twisted minds at Troma Entertainment! Welcome to California\, where the beaches have become battlefields and the waves are a war zone! In the near future\, a major earthquake has devastated the California coastline. As the survivors attempt to put their lives back together\, a new\, more terrifying threat erupts. The once beautiful beaches are now ruled by ruthless gangs . . . and the gangs are ruled by the dreaded Surf Nazis! Only one person is powerful enough to stop them—Mama Washington on a rampage of revenge! \n\n\n\n“A sort of Clockwork Orange meets Mad Max on the beach\, pic hasn’t one redeeming feature.” -Variety \n\n\n\nDirector: Peter GeorgeCountry: USAYear: 1987Runtime: 83 minutes

SUMMARY:Esperanto
DESCRIPTION:Mixing the rock stars of mountain biking with a cast of unknown and up-and-coming heroes\, TGR’s latest film Esperanto explores how we share our dreams through a universal two-wheeled language no matter what our native tongue may be. The sacred ritual of the ride might sound different all across the world – whether it’s a full-face getting pulled down to drop into a big jump line or wheeling a beat-up bike out of a mud hut to pedal to school – but it’s a universal process no matter what language we speak. \n\n\n\nAs we view this visual tapestry featuring next-level riding in unusual locations all across the globe\, we hear a voice speaking a language we’ve never heard: \n\n\n\nThere are more than 7\,000 languages spoken on Earth. In 1887 a Polish-Jewish doctor named L.L. Zamenhof created a new one\, a universal second language based on a combination of existing widely-spoken European languages. Its goal is to help bring people together from different ideologies\, beliefs\, and nations and ultimately to help end war. The language was called Esperanto. Translated into English it means ‘one who hopes.’ Today\, Esperanto might remain elusive\, but the dream of a shared language Spoken Worldwide still flourishes. You just have to know where to look for it. \n\n\n\nDirector: Jeremy GrantCountry: USAYear: 2022Runtime: 60 minutes\n\n\n\n\nPortland premiere from Teton Gravity Research made possible by Warpaint Magazine!
