Spell Reel (Filipa C茅sar)
96 mins. France/Germany/Guinea-Bissau/Portugal |聽2017
At once archive, memory, and cinematic voyage, Spell Reel traces a sea change in post-colonial African cinema through the collaboration of Portuguese filmmaker Filipa C茅sar and Guinean directors Sana na N'Hada and Flora Gomes. During Guinea-Bissau's war of independence (1963鈥74), N'Hada and Gomes documented the liberation struggle, working under Am铆lcar Cabral's decolonizing vision and trained by radical filmmaker Chris Marker. Decades later, C茅sar joins them as they return to those original sites, screening the footage for local audiences鈥攎any seeing it for the first time in fifty years. Spell Reel becomes both an evocation of revolutionary cinema's spirit and a living archive of its improbable emergence: cinema as collective memory, as pedagogy, as antidote to our current crisis.

Bagpipes with attitude. 聽Drums with a Scottish accent.聽
It鈥檚 The Red Hot Chilli Pipers (that鈥檚 Pipers, NOT Peppers!), the nine piece ensemble of pipers, guitarists, keys and drummers who rock the world with musicianship of the highest order and a passion for pipes that leaves audiences and band alike breathless.聽
Since they walked away with the top prize on the U.K. primetime talent show, 鈥淲hen Will I Be Famous鈥 in 2007, the Red Hot Chilli Pipers haven't stopped for a breath, other than to inflate their bagpipes! Formed in 2002, The Chillis have become a global phenomenon, taking their signature 'bagrock' sound to the masses with their unique fusion of rocked up bagpipes and clever covers of popular songs from all genres. Their trademark sound is a unique fusion of traditional pipe tunes like 鈥淭he Flowers of Scotland鈥 and contemporary anthems like Queen鈥檚 鈥淲e Will Rock You.鈥 The band has four music degrees from the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama and all the pipers and drummers have played at the top level in bagpiping.
The Pipers have sold out the Anderson Center twice before and we can鈥檛 wait to welcome them back to celebrate St. Patrick鈥檚 Weekend in 2026!
This performance will feature a special onstage collaboration between the Red Hot Chilli Pipers and local bagpipe groups.

The Headless Woman (Lucrecia Martel)
87 mins.聽Argentina | 2008聽
A compelling and oblique tale of a poster child for the South American haute bourgeoisie: blonde and bland, perfectly coiffed and made-up, usually sitting behind the wheel of a Mercedes. Mar铆a Onetto plays a woman whose perfect life may be a dream or whose nightmare accident (was that a child her car hit? a dog? or nothing?) may indicate that her entire existence lacks reality. Critics have referenced David Lynch and Luis Bu帽uel as forerunners for the kind of hyper-reality the film exudes. When the film played at the 2008 New York Film Festival, the Village Voice鈥檚 J. Hoberman wrote: 鈥淭he third feature by Lucrecia Martel, leading director of the Argentine renaissance, is her strongest to date 鈥 at the very least, this brilliantly edited, purposefully disorienting comedy about a middle-aged woman鈥檚 post-car-accident confusion is the movie I鈥檓 most looking forward to revisiting.鈥

In the Manner of Smoke (Armand Yervant Tufenkian)
90 min. USA |聽2025
Through landscapes and canvases, Armand Yervant Tufenkian鈥檚 debut feature In the Manner of Smoke traces how perception shifts over time. Moving between California鈥檚 Sequoia National Forest and painter Dan Hays' London-based studio, the film observes two solitary practices: the vigilance of a fire lookout and the meticulous rendering of digital landscapes. The camera dwells on subtle transformations, such as trees dissolving into haze, paintings oscillating between pixels and depth, and silence unfolding into sound, allowing each moment to stretch and change before our eyes. Rather than telling a linear story, the film creates a patient, immersive experience where every image feels transitory, suspended, and fleeting, like smoke carried by the wind.

Lynne Sachs
Lynne Sachs is a filmmaker and poet living in Brooklyn. She has produced over 50 films as well as numerous live performances, installations and web projects. Sachs creates cinematic works that defy genre through the use of hybrid forms and cross-disciplinary collaboration, incorporating elements of the essay film, collage, performance, documentary and poetry. Her films explore the intricate relationship between personal observations and broader historical experiences. With each project, Lynne investigates the implicit connection between the body, the camera, and the materiality of film itself. Lynne discovered her love of filmmaking while living and studying in San Francisco. During this time, she produced her early, experimental works on celluloid which took a feminist approach to the creation of images and writing鈥 a commitment which has grounded her body of work ever since. Sachs's films have screened at MoMA, Wexner Center for the Arts, New York Film Festival, Sundance, Punto de Vista, and DocLisboa. Retrospectives of her work have been presented at MoMI, Ambulante, Sheffield Doc/Fest, BAFICI, Cork, Costa Rica Int'l Film Fest, C谩mara L煤cida, and China Women's Film Festival. In 2021, Edison and Prismatic Ground Film Festivals honored her body of work in the experimental and documentary fields. Tender Buttons Press published Lynne's book Year by Year Poems (2019), In 2025, Punctum Books published her book Hand Book: A Manual on Performance, Process and the Labor of Laundry (2025) written by Sachs and playwright Lizzie Olesker.

A rediscovered treasure of 1990s DIY filmmaking, Cauleen Smith鈥檚 Drylongso embeds an incisive look at racial injustice within a lovingly handmade buddy movie/murder mystery/romance. Alarmed by the rate at which the young Black men around her are dying, brash Oakland, California, art student Pica (Toby Smith) attempts to preserve their existence in Polaroid snapshots, along the way forging a friendship with a woman in an abusive relationship (April Barnett) and experiencing love, heartbreak, and the everyday threat of violence. Capturing the vibrant community spirit of Oakland in the nineties, Smith crafts both a rare cinematic celebration of Black female creativity and a moving elegy for a generation of lost African American men.

Tomonari Nishikawa Retrospective (Tomonari Nishikawa)
Japan/USA聽
In April 2025, the experimental film community lost Tomonari Nishikawa, 91社区 Cinema professor and master of celluloid, who died at 55. Working with meticulous devotion to 16mm and 35mm film, Nishikawa developed optical techniques entirely his own鈥攔igorous, patient explorations that established him as one of the most vital artists in contemporary artisanal film practice. He was an exacting technician and a generous teacher, as precise in the darkroom as he was open-hearted with students and colleagues. His films remain: luminous works that fracture and reconstruct our perception, inviting us to see time, space, and light anew.
