Interview with director – Leland Montgomery
The arts were sort of present in my life for as long as I can remember. My mom and dad had been part of the Oakland Art scene for as long as I can remember. Some of their best friends were the original founders of Burning Man and I remember going to burner parties in warehouses when I was a little kid. My current passion as a filmmaker, however, began when I started doing plays in high school. I remember being interested not only in acting, but also in costume and scenic design. My interest only broadened in college.
LIKE ANIMALS
LIKE ANIMALS is a visually stunning film which opens with a haunting score in a neighborhood lackluster of life. The non-color palette and neutral tones define a monotone way of living that reflects the lives of the characters that call this home. The score creates a foreboding pulse to the film that carries the story in a haunting rhythm.
HOME CONSTRUCTORS
The film is about five Palestinian workers who try to find their place alongside their Jewish-Israeli constructor during Israeli’s Memorial Day. By distancing themselves from a foreigner fellow-worker – a refugee from Darfur – the workers are hoping to finally belong to this land that defines its owners by the rules of war.
INTERVIEW WITH DIRECTOR – GREGORY ALLEN
Allen has been in the entertainment industry for thirty years as an actor, director, writer and producer – having worked on television, film and stage. He is an award winning director.
WHITE FEATHER
Written and Directed by Daniel Arbon, WHITE FEATHER is based on the true story of Arbon’s great-grandfather.
THE BLOOD OF GOD
Davo Hardy’s Independent Australian film – THE BLOOD OF GOD – takes on many social issues – faith vs. religion, prostitution, drug addiction, HIV, racism, and murder.
BUMMER
It’s hard to imagine a powerful message in just 13 minutes, but that’s exactly what Barry Worthington (Writer, Director and Editor) set out to do – and accomplished – in BUMMER.
The Keeper
Written, Directed and Starring Bob Celli, THE KEEPER is a mysterious drama about a lonely widow yearning for a romantic connection. She meets that connection – a collector of art – at a speed dating event.
A SILENT AGREEMENT
Written, Directed and Edited by Davo Hardy, A SILENT AGREEMENT is the first Australian feature film to showcase Auslan (Australian Sign Language).
