Screening - Boathouse Microcinema by Roland Dahwen

Boathouse Microcinema - 12 March 2025

Assembly Cut: A Group Screening

Information here

Experimental video and film can take on many forms and mean different things to different people. For our first screening since 2019, we are surveying a wide range of experiments – from glitch art, to music video, to narrative short, to durational, and more. Perhaps the intertwining videos will contradict each other, perhaps they will inform each other. Tonight’s filmmakers are a disparate bunch, each with their own unique voice.

Program Includes:
Roland Dahwen – Las Vegas, Y La Bamba “Rios Sueltos” music video
Leslie Hickey – Phone / Memory
Lily King – November 20, 2024
Brandon Marcoux and Mariana Mora – Two Fernand Rudolph music videos
Matthew Nash – Leaving it Behind
Kai Nealis – Queen
Sarah Turner – But… You’re a Dolphin

After many years, Borrufa will premiere tomorrow at the Portland International Film Festival. One of eight films that are finalists for the Future/Future competition, Borrufa screens on March 7 and March 12, at the Whitsell Auditorium, inside the Portland Art Museum.

Thank you to the hundreds of people, near and far, who have given time, ideas, resources, houses, food, equipment, criticism, encouragement, and belief to make this film possible.
