A Glaring Night

Schroon Lake "Schroon Lake" adapts performance artists Matty Davis and Ben Gould's work "Carriage" to the nine-mile-long frozen lake in the Adirondacks. Shot on expired 16mm film over ice, the film offers a gritty intimacy and sightline of the unstable space between masculinities refracted through the winter and mutually activated syndromes, perceived and rearranged through a queer, female gaze.

Inside Red China October 1st, 1957. Dusk descends on Tiananmen Square, Peking. Fireworks crackle light across the night sky, above a city alive with National Day festivities and celebrations. Two intrepid New Zealand film-makers - Rudall and Ramai Te Miha Hayward - are there, documenting the life and times of communist China. The distinction of being the first English speaking foreigners to film unfettered in communist China was significant. The invitation to visit China was facilitated through the New Zealand China Friendship Society. They filmed in Canton, Shanghai, Peking (Beijing) and Wuhan. It was a small window of opportunity for Westerners to gaze on a country that was largely a mystery to the outside world since 1949. The unfortunate irony was that two of the documentaries; “Wonders of China”, and “Inside Red China”, were considered to be communist propaganda, and were not distributed outside of New Zealand.
