Each year we excitedly head south to the AAFF, the third oldest film festival in North America, to feast on the best in the world of experimental cinema. Then we bring our favorites back Up North for you. Experience 47 animated, small, surreal events that taken together somehow replicate the feeling of being alive in “Symphony No. 42;” explore a 100-year-old boat shop in the LA harbor that evokes a hidden world at sea in the award-winning “Port Noir;” and thrill to an incredible soundtrack as the Vaux’s Swifts “Layover” in Portland, Oregon, on their migratory flight to South America. In Person: AAFF Executive Director Leslie Raymond.

Description

'You want to put her in a home; you tell her; tell her now!' hisses one brother to the other. But Mother won't go, and their own lives unravel as she clings on. Innovative life-size animated characters tell the stark and darkly humorous tale of caring for an elderly parent.
