An interest in the construction of both natural and man-made space has been a long-standing facet of
the experimental film tradition. From Ralph Steiner's meditation on water to Jenni Olson's exploration of
queer life by way of San Francisco landscapes, these works invite us to be tourists, mourners, and lovers,
while we question the ways that we see our surroundings. With shorts spanning from 1920 to 2010, this
program includes Jisí Barta's A Ballad About Greenwood (1983), Ralph Steiner's H20 (1929), Nathaniel
Dorsky's Variations (1998), Jenni Olson's Blue Diary (1997), Kenneth Kobland's Berlin: Tourist Journal
(1988), and Ira Sachs' Last Address (2009). (Various Formats. 80 min. Not Rated.) Some of the films
contain adult themes or content, and may not be suitable for children.
