Lynne Sachs, filmmaker in-person presenting: "Every Contact Leaves a Trace" and Mark Street, filmmaker in-person presenting: "Berlin Theater of the Street"
"Every Contact Leaves a Trace" documentary, 82 minutes.
--Contact—so tactile, so evocative of the touch of one person on another, physically and emotionally. Trace—a way to get back to an earlier point and a reckoning with the remains of that initial encounter. Filmmaker Lynne Sachs has saved every business card anyone has ever given her. After 40 years of collecting, she recognizes their mnemonic powers. With 600 cards in her grasp, Sachs contemplates the impact of these haptic exchanges. In both real and imagined ways, her essay teases apart their vivid resonances, entwining personal memory with geopolitical history through visual abstraction, music, and a poet’s sense of introspection.
"Berlin Theater of the Streets", documentary, 10 minutes. --A walk through Berlin; eyes open, camera ready. Countless vignettes unfold around me, and I imagine storylines for each set piece. -MS
