Spacetime Revolution

These works are memories migrating in cyclical harmony with the sun. Drifting off into space but longing for the earth, these films evoke peripheral visions, sacred distortions, and supernatural intimacies of the everyday. —Mena El Shazly

App 666
Canada 2024 | William Brown | 42 min. | 55.5 MB

Inspired by Wim Wenders’s Room 666, this collaborative project asks 17 filmmakers about the current state of cinema. Selfie-style confessionals explore divides in the contemporary media landscape—from the powerful small-scale images presently emerging from Gaza to the distorted escapism of Hollywood blockbusters—and ask whether there is still a place for independent filmmaking.

App 666 will be followed by a Q&A with William Brown and featured filmmakers Jill Daniels, and Wayne Wapeemukwa.
