Description

On Saturday, June 13th, 2026 at 7pm, Non Films presents "DarkRoom: Screening & Salon" once again at the Film-Makers' Cooperative!

Concluding a birth-life-death trilogy of screenings, this program explores the inherent materiality and aging of celluloid film, featuring older and deteriorating prints, some verging on the brink of extinction. Some of these prints may never be shown again! Please join us for a one-night-only showcase of rarely-screened experimental cinema.

Program:

  1. Richard Preston: Manifesto (1963): 4m
  2. Tom Chomont: Razor Head (1984): 4m (silent)
  3. Ron Finne: Das Ballett (1968): 5m
  4. Stan Brakhage: Arabic 2 (1980): 5m (silent)
  5. Doris Chase: Circles II (1972): 14m
  6. Tom DeWitt: The Leap (1968) : 7m
  7. David Gatten: What the Water Said, Nos. 1-3 (1997) : 16m (with a live score by Hollywood Extras)
