[Frameworks] TONIGHT: Nicolas Rey's LES SOVIETS PLUS L’ÉLECTRICITÉ

2013-11-11 Thread Stephanie Wuertz
Millennium Presents: LES SOVIETS PLUS L’ÉLECTRICITÉ

@ Uniondocs 322 Union Ave

Nov 11th, 6:30pm

This special screening kicks off a US tour which continues on Tuesday,
November 12 with a screening of his latest film, Differently Molussia, at
the New School.

The Soviets Plus Electricity (Les Soviets plus l’électricité)

175 minutes |USA | Soviet Union | 2001 | 16 mm

A cinetrip to a defunct country. Super-self-production in Sviemacolor.
Wandering through Russia as if through someone else’s house. ” Day two is
the worst. It was the same in the train: on the second day, I stamped my
feet impatiently. Then, from the third day on, it gets better. You get used
to the slowness, to the monotonous landscape, to a life made up of short
sleep-eat-wait cycles having absolutely nothing to do with the usual timing
of a day. ” Advertisements for linoleum as if it were some precious stone,
and entire cities – built on gold mines – left abandoned. There is no such
thing as Russian chaos. Just “Europe” stretching all the way to the Pacific
Ocean, and no longer merely to the ghostly Oural Mountains.

Since 1993 Nicolas Rey has been making films that hover between
photography, documentaries and the avant-garde. He is one of the founders
of the Paris-based artist film lab L’Abominable.

This event is supported by a grant from the New York State Council on the
Arts. “The Nicholas Rey touring exhibition is supported in part by a grant
from Cine2000, a program of FACE”.

[Frameworks] 1995 Eastman Motion Picture Camera Films Pamphlet

Hi!

I just found this when cleaning out a filing cabinet.  I ordered it when I was 
working on a film called Summer Light but I soon went digital after that and 
finished the film on my computer.

I'm about to throw it out, so if you would like to have it, please send me a 
personal e-mail at perko...@yahoo.com.
