Special Flight (2011) - Documentary Directed By Fernand Melgar
Tuesday, January 17, 7:30
Special Flight (Vol spécial; 2011, Fernand Melgar, Switzerland). Documentary. 1h 43min
Presented by UC Center for Film and Media Studies
Switzerland is strict about granting asylum to foreigners: Less than 12 percent of applicants are accepted. Special Flight tells the story of the rest, who are swept into one of the country’s 28 detention centers. Frambois, established in 2004, has been criticized for its high cost and relative comfort, yet its deportation rate, 86 percent, is the highest in the country. Many of the undocumented immigrants and asylum seekers detained there have lived in Switzerland for years–20 years in the case of Ragip, a Kosovar man featured in the film–and have jobs and families. They may be locked up for as long as 18 months before being deported.
Fernand Melgar is a self-trained activist filmmaker and producer based in Switzerland. He came to Switzerland from Spain as a young child. His 2008 docmentary The Fortress won a Golden Leopard at the Locarno International Film Festival

Relays: Exchanges Between Colombia and Mexico - Jorge Lorenzo
MTY-BOG Relays: Exchanges between Colombia and Mexico
Jorge Lorenzo is a filmmaker and university professor hailing from Monterrey, an industrial city with a vibrant art scene in northeastern Mexico. Jorge obtained a Fullbright scholarship to pursue a MFA degree in Experimental Film and Video at the San Francisco Art Institute in California and assumed a faculty position at ITESM upon his return. His work has been screened at the Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale), the Images Festival in Toronto, and the Experiments in Cinema festival in Albuquerque, among others. Jorge comes to Cincinnati by way of Toronto where he recently undertook an Artist Residency at LIFT, one of Canada’s premier organizations fostering excellence in moving image arts. In his program for The Mini Microcinema, Jorge bridges two cities that he intimately knows and have played an integral part of his development as a filmmaker. He explains:
“I have traveled to and fro between Monterrey (Mexico) and Bogotá (Colombia) from 2007 to 2015 more or less. This was a priceless opportunity that broaden my experience of life in Latin America in many ways and has sadly come to a sudden halt recently. Throughout my various visits and returns I have gathered interesting experimental materials from friends and acquaintances in both countries. Historically and conceptually speaking some films are more relevant than others; not all of them are in the best of shapes; but they are all certainly interesting evidence of other approaches to the act of filmmaking. Moreover, the people featured in this program have definitely had a strong impact in me as a filmmaker and as an individual; it is a way of closing such a compelling chapter in my own personal life.”

54th Ann Arbor Film Festival Tour
As it has since 1964, the Ann Arbor Film Festival Tour continues to deliver outstanding films from our Festival to audiences near and far, including experimental, documentary, animation, narrative and hybrid works. AAFF is dedicated to artists who embrace the moving image as an artform. It’s a rare chance to have their work screened for audiences that wouldn’t have another way to see it.
This year’s 100-minute Digital Program features nine new experimental, animated, documentary and narrative videos including Mateusz Sadowski’s Resonance, Winner of the Chris Frayne Best Animated Film Award, and Ralitsa Doncheva’s Baba Dana Talks to the Wolves, Winner of the Eileen Maitland Award for Women’s Voice. The program also features Bisonhead (Elizabeth Lo), The Mess (Peter Burr), The Perpetual Motion of My Love for You (Karen Yasinsky), Love Under Will of the Hags Long Tooth (Mica O’Herlihy), Fundir (Allison Cekala), and not even nothing can be free of ghosts (Ranier Kohlberger). -AAFF

Wild: Andy Marko
Wild - an overview of films, videos, media installations and performances by Andy Marko (and sometimes with Robert Dyehouse). "Taking stock. Artists revisiting their work and discussing current and future explorations." - Julian Etienne Gomez
With sound and technical assistance by Marc Governanti
"My artworks have dealt with vision, that which can be seen, directed vision and that which can only be experienced." - Andy Marko
Marko’s current practice confronts the illusion of viewer choice on Internet sites, a linchpin of the design in web-based presentations. Andy Marko is a conceptual artist who creates media art, performances, sound art and installations. He studied film theory and production, performance art, dance, music composition, theater and photography. Marko works with semantics and he chaired the City of Cincinnati's Arts Allocation Committee for four years. He was awarded an Individual Artist's Fellowship from the Ohio Arts Council for his interdisciplinary artwork. . Marko has a commercial practice, Dash Media, and has produced many documentaries and commissioned artworks. Marko earned degrees in American History (B.A.) and Film (M.F.A.).

Presidents and Elections
Presidents and Elections A Compilation of Work by The Video Data Bank
Thursday, January 5th, 2017 Doors at 7:00... Screening at 7:30 @ The Mini - 1329 Main St. The commodification of the American presidency is examined and lampooned in Presidents and Elections, a compilation of work from the Video Data Bank collection. Interweaving humorous, disquieting, and surreal videos with actual presidential campaign ads, the program highlights the evolving role of television as the driving force of electoral politics. Using appropriated media footage, parodic performance, historical reenactment, and other tactics, the artists represented in this program subvert and disrupt the inanity/insanity of dominant political discourse with their own forms of media manipulation.
