Full festival passes available. \n\n\n\n\nThe first in a four-film Female Prisoner Scorpion cycle charts the vengeance of Nami Matsushima—a gullible\, unjustly imprisoned woman who must find a way to escape and exact revenge upon the man who betrayed her\, and who becomes an avatar of survival and an unlikely symbol of female resistance in a male-dominated world. \n\n\n\nFeaturing stunning pop-art compositions and ultra-violent outbursts\, the film has been described as “pure exploitation” by critics as is one of the best know examples of the “pinky violence” subgenre developed by Japanese film company Toei in the 1970s as a way to compete with the influx of American grindhouse. \n\n\n\nPresented in Japanese language with English subtitles. \n\n\n\n(CW: This film contains scenes that could be viewed as controversial\, offensive\, or even triggering.) \n\n\n\n \n Director: Yasuharu Hasebe\n Year: 1973\n Country: Japan\n Runtime: 89 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/female-prisoner-scorpion-701/ CATEGORIES:hanabi ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/female-prisoner-scorpion.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230727T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230727T210000 DTSTAMP:20260701T143505 CREATED:20230609T221932Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230609T221934Z UID:10000981-1690484400-1690491600@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:Ugetsu DESCRIPTION:Part of the Hanabi Japanese Festival running Monday\, July 24 through Monday\, August 7. Full festival passes available. \n\n\n\n\nRegarded as the masterwork of Japan’s Golden Age of Film\, UGETSU (1953)\, shortened from Ugetsu Monogatari—the title of Ueda Akinari’s 1776 book of the same name\, is credited with simultaneously helping to popularize Japanese cinema in the West and influencing later Japanese film. \n\n\n\nYounger directors like Akira Kurosawa fiercely revered director Kenji Mizoguchi\, who made more than 100 films between 1923 and 1956. \n\n\n\nIn this exquisite ghost story\, a fatalistic wartime tragedy derived from stories by Akinari Ueda and Guy de Maupassant\, the viewer is guided through a delirious narrative about two villagers whose pursuit of fame and fortune leads them far astray from their loyal wives. Moving between the terrestrial and the otherworldly\, the film reveals essential truths about the ravages of war\, the plight of women\, and the pride of men. \n\n\n\nNearly always included in any top 50 list among critics\, Roger Ebert called it “one of the greatest of all films\,” a sentiment echoed by directors such as Andrei Tarkovsky and Martin Scorsese. \n\n\n\nPresented in Japanese language with English subtitles. \n\n\n\n \n Director: Kenji Mizoguchi\n Year: 1953\n Country: Japan\n Runtime: 96 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/ugetsu/ CATEGORIES:hanabi ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Ugetsu.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230726T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230726T210000 DTSTAMP:20260701T143505 CREATED:20230701T222923Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230701T222924Z UID:10001020-1690398000-1690405200@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:Chizoku's Younger Sister (Church of Film) DESCRIPTION:Mika’s older sister\, Chizoku\, died in a tragic accident a year ago\, sendering her family spiraling into grief. Shy and unsure of herself\, Mika is a lost girl… until the ghost of her sister appears.

Through the eyes of renowned scientists and mycologists like Paul Stamets\, best-selling authors Michael Pollan\, Eugenia Bone\, Andrew Weil\, and others\, we become aware of the beauty\, intelligence and solutions the fungi kingdom offers us in response to some of our most pressing medical\, therapeutic\, and environmental challenges \n\n\n\n \n Director: Louie Schwartzberg\n Year: 2019\n Country: USA\n Runtime: 80 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/fantastic-fungi/ CATEGORIES:documentary ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/ff.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230724T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230724T210000 DTSTAMP:20260701T143505 CREATED:20230609T220443Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230609T220445Z UID:10000978-1690225200-1690232400@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:Tetsuo: The Iron Man DESCRIPTION:Part of our Hanabi Japanese Festival running Monday\, July 24 through Monday\, August 7. Full festival passes available. \n\n\n\n\nCalled the “cyberpunk ERASERHEAD\,” Shinya Tsukamoto’s underground classic was virtually absent from theaters for decades as all physical releases were out of print. Now available in a brand new restoration\, the film is an unhinged metaphor of humankind’s ongoing battle with technology; literally\, as a man mutates into a walking\, clanking machine that terrorizes himself and everyone around him. \n\n\n\nWarping elements of early Cronenberg\, Lynch\, and Raimi into a deliriously-paced cocktail\, Tsukamoto’s body horror manifesto was largely ignored until it won Best Picture at 1989’s Fantafestival in Rome\, prompting sold out late-night screenings in its home country and helping kick start a new revival of independent film in Japan. \n\n\n\nFueled by techno-erotic adrenaline and wrought iron perversion\, the grueling 16mm production was finished almost entirely by the director and just two actors\, Kei Fujiwara and Shinya Tsukamoto. Today\, directors from Tarantino to The Wachowskis cite the film as a major influence. \n\n\n\nPresented in Japanese language with English subtitles. \n\n\n\n(CW: This film contains scenes that could be viewed as controversial\, offensive\, or even triggering.) \n\n\n\n \n Director: Shinya Tsukamoto\n Year: 1989\n Country: Japan\n Runtime: 67 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/tetsuo-the-iron-man/ CATEGORIES:hanabi ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/tetsuo.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230723T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230723T173000 DTSTAMP:20260701T143505 CREATED:20220906T201619Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230701T223648Z UID:10000594-1690129800-1690133400@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:Anti-Capitalism At Work: Finding a Good Job DESCRIPTION:Facilitated by Marina Martinez-Bateman\, People-First Management Expert\, CEO\, New Coyote Consulting \n\n\n\n\nWhen we talk about being anti-capitalist\, what does that mean for the job hunt? No matter what else\, it’s our obligation to survive and thrive within a system that was not made for us. So what does an anti-capitalist look for in a job? What questions and criteria can we rely on to give us an idea of whether or not our new employer will either share our vision\, or at the very least be as minimally exploitative of our labor as possible? \n\n\n\nThis will be a digital and in-person facilitated conversation with the goal of helping us create stronger boundaries at work. We’ll open with a brief story that outlines the concept\, then we’ll use that to kick off a facilitated discussion focused on solutions and next steps the average worker can take in real-time.  \n\n\n\n\nAbout Marina: Marina Martinez-Bateman (they/them) is a serial entrepreneur and a grassroots communicator with more than 20 years’ experience motivating people to take action on behalf of political\, cultural\, and commercial interests.

A small ruling class emerges jealously guarding the remains of civilizations\, while the deeply religious masses\, born “degenerate” from the toxic air and water\, are driven into camps or kept as servants. They await a savior. Suddenly a man emerges. He is seeking a museum that becomes accessible for only one week a year\, when the sea levels drop and the oceans part—and he is seeking faith in a world without salvation. \n\n\n\nMoody\, terrifying\, and hallucinatory\, VISITOR OF A MUSEUM is perhaps the most acclaimed film of Konstantin Lopushansky\, a protege of Andrei Tarkovsky.

Cem Kaya’s dense documentary film essay is a tutorial in Turkish-German recent history that tells a tale of assembly line jobs\, homesickness and family reunification\, the bazaar in the elevated railway station at Berlin’s Bülowstraße\, xenophobia and racism\, the wistful songs of the early years and the hip-hop of the post-reunification period. \n\n\n\nThese are the stories shared by musicians beginning with Metin Türköz and Yüksel Özkasap\, to the psychedelic Derdiyoklar and the chart-topping rapper Muhabbet. Their music has evolved a long way from that of German bands and has always developed out of the Turkish community and its desires. This is the world of Radio Yilmaz\, various music cassette labels\, protest rocker Cem Karaca’s German exile\, and wedding bands that also sing in Kurdish and Arabic to meet the demands of the market. \n\n\n\nExtensive archival research and an interest in Turkish popular culture are recurring themes in Cem Kaya’s work. With Aşk\, Mark ve Ölüm\, he has created a rhythmic and vividly narrated cinematic encyclopaedia of Turkish music in Germany. \n\n\n\n \n Director: Cem Kaya\n Year: 2022\n Country: Germany\n Runtime: 96 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/love-deutschmark-and-death/ CATEGORIES:german ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/ldd.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230708T230000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230708T230000 DTSTAMP:20260701T143505 CREATED:20230611T174235Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230611T174237Z UID:10000999-1688857200-1688857200@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:The Rocky Horror Picture Show for Virgins DESCRIPTION:Curious?

Water Parks. Reverend Ghostman. Dreams. Death. Pancakes. 102 Jamz. Rain. Money. Parades. Happiness. The American Dream.  \n\n\n\nFirst performed in 2011\, My Americana is a performance piece with a single stage performer accompanied with a live musician and overhead projections. The show is produced every other year\, presenting all new stories and songs\, while featuring a different musician. \n\n\n\nThis year’s My Americana will feature the talented Shane O’Shields as the musician. Described by some as a mystical\, fuzzy\, friendly giant\, Shane will bring his own flavor of Americana Classical Psychedelia and Blues to this year’s My Americana\, by playing the cello\, guitar\, ukulele\, drums\, tambourine and a kazoo. \n\n\n\nFrom Ollie\, the Writer\, Director and Stage Performer: \n\n\n\n“I put everything into My Americana. It’s a chance for me to provide snapshots of an individual\, which I believe helps inform the story of a culture. The show is called My Americana\, but I’ve always seen it as Our Americana – it’s really about all of us. We strive to make the show less of a performer’s cathartic experience and more about an entertaining\, thought-provoking and fun time for the audience. At the same time\, if you’ve ever wanted to see me perform passionately and perhaps gain some insight about the crazy man who does the intros at the Ten Minute Play Festivals\, this is your chance.” \n\n\n\nWritten\, Directed and Performed by Ollie Collins \n\n\n\nMusic by Shane O’Shields \n\n\n\nRun time: 50 Minutes \n\n\n\nNo Intermission \n\n\n\n“My Americana is good.

His first releases were small runs of LPs and CDs\, that he did for his own band and his friends’ bands\, but fast forward to the present\, he now runs a celebrated underground label that is renowned internationally for putting out black metal\, doom\, and noise rock releases of well-known bands. He and his business partner\, Dave Adelson\, from the record label\, 20 Buck Spin\, put on Migration Fest every two years where heavy music fans from around the world come together to perform\, hang out\, and create strong personal bonds. \n\n\n\nThrough live performances\, interviews\, and behind the scenes hangouts\, we meet the artists behind the music\, learn how they write and perform music as a means to cope with issues such as sexual abuse\, depression\, childhood indoctrination of Christianity\, and grief from loss of loved ones.
