RAPSODIA SATANICA (1917)\, featuring the legendary Lyda Borelli\, is an entrancing visual poem in which a haughty woman makes a pact with the devil to regain her youth & beauty\, with gorgeous stencil coloring. In THE FAUN (1917)\, a neglected woman falls in love with the statue of a mythical man-beast\, escaping to live an idyllic romance in the wild. \n\n\n\nRapsosia Satanica will feature the existing original score\, by the sensational opera composer Pietro Mascagni (the only film commission he ever accepted). Church of Film will provide an ambient track for THE FAUN.

Kat’s growing obsession with Lilith and her art pushes Lilith’s mental state to the limits as the subjects in her paintings begin appearing to her in visions and dreams. As Lilith walks the line between creativity and self-destruction\, her realities collide and she must make a choice as to which demons she will face\, and how far she is willing to go to achieve artistic perfection. \n\n\n\nDirected by Ettie Wahl\, this film is a prayer\, a dedication\, and a commitment to every artist\, queer person\, and survivor—to learn the balance between devotion to our work and to ourselves.

Directorial duo Maxime Lachaud and Steve Balestreri’s beguiling debut feature is a societal portrait of underground and alternative artists. \n\n\n\nLive performance from Attic Ted—a musical/visual weirdo cabaret country carnival art-house performance artists from Texas\, who utilize homemade masks and an un-traditional approach to entertaining. \n\n\n\nFor over 20 years Grady Roper and Coby Cardosa have been releasing albums and touring the world\, sharing their odd-ball approach of combining Hammond organ\, twangy guitar\, synthesizer sounds\, clarinet\, drums and character based vocals. They could be described as a love child between influences such as: Butthole Surfers\, The Residence\, Klaus Nomi\, and Talking Heads… quirky and gothic\, yet danceable and funny\, yet dark and unnerving.
