WITHOUT A FUTURE: An Evening With Isiah Medina

WITHOUT A FUTURE: An Evening With Isiah Medina
Dir. Various, 1895-2015

MONDAY, OCTOBER 5 8:00 PM
** ONE NIGHT ONLY! **

To think cinema is not only to claim it is an invention without a future, but it is to claim that the cut invents the form of being without a future. In the cut we do not see a future, but we present the present. Thinking through different cuts made in the cinema, we attempt to see and pose in relation, different presentations of the present. When is the present, and how many times has the present happened?

For one night only, filmmaker/philosopher Isiah Medinahot off the New York premiere of his incendiary debut feature 88:88joins us at Spectacle for an evening of cinema and discussion, including (but not limited to) a very rare screening of his short SEMI-AUTO COLOURS on Medina's original 16mm workprint.
