Short Films by Noelia Santos
Filmmaker Noelia Santos presents two of her short films and a work-in-progress. Her work blends narrative storytelling with nonfiction approaches and a highly cinematic visual sense. In ''Triptych," three women in transition are portrayed against the backdrop of a teeming metropolis. Though they don’t know each other, the characters’ intersecting paths form a larger storyline of emotional growth and cyclic experience within the city - itself a figure of constant change and renewal. In 'Focus,' a photographer works alone in her studio, struggling with an idea for a new project. Her wanderings through the lively city streets fuel her search for inspiration. When she finally discards her original idea, new connections in the work compel her to find the "missing image" out in the world.
'Triptych' (completed July 2011) was selected for the Lucerne International Film Festival Showcase (2011) and NewFilmmakers New York (Spring 2012). "Focus" was begun in 2010 while studying at The New School with visiting professor/filmmaker Kamal Aljafari and completed in early 2012.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A discussion with Noelia moderated by Jack Feldstein. The event is free and open to the public.
