TOUR
MadCat is currently on TOUR with a portion of last year's Festival. We will
let you know if MadCat plans to travel to your area. Or let us know if you
want to set up a screening near you.

Private Eyes
"Private Eyes," the first program in curator, Ariella Ben-Dov's series
features an eclectic selection of experimental documentaries and animated
works from the UK, Czech Republic, Norway and the US. The Intimacy of
Strangers, follows a clandestine film crew that prowls the streets,
capturing phone conversations. The filmmaker "steals" these intimate moments
and explores the ever-shrinking gap between private and public spheres. Deep
Woods is a performative video that lures male participants through evocative
advertisements. These innovative works reveal the power of modern
technologies to upend of notions of privacy. www.madcatfilmfestival.org

Fools Tricks
The second program in curator Ariella Ben-Dov's series - "Fools Tricks,"
highlights experiments in avant-garde filmmaking. Optical printing, painting
on film and other tricks of the cinematic trade create an intriguing body of
work. Set against the background of real and imagined calamities, Boll
Weevil Days re-conceptualizes the disaster narrative. A fragile paper city
and yellowing pictures of rescue workers from the 1930s creates an
elliptical portrayal of intimacy in the face of oblivion. Blending
documentary and conceptual audio Tune-In uncovers the world of amateur radio
operators. Also see an abstracted lunar eclipse, the inner workings of a
monastery's bakery and the re-creation of planets, among other stories.
