🌓 MOONS OF CAVIA outdoor cinema 🎬 Working Progress: Filmmakers’ Community Event + Happy Fuji News (Eric Kinny, 2022)

As another year passes in our small but enduring cinema, Cavia is ready to host the sixth edition of Moons, our outdoor festival of film, performance, food, and, more than anything else, community. This year we want to look inward at the many Moons that make up Cavia’s sky. 

Filmhuis Cavia means collective, it stands for the ability of many different identities to stand together, in solidarity. Through our program this year we will try to represent some of the principles that guide us, as an act of collective reflection between the cinema and its many communities. This exercise has led us to what is maybe one of the most exciting and rich programs ever!

Working Progress: Filmmakers’ Community Event + Happy Fuji News

To close up Moons, we are happy to announce another amazing collaboration. On Sunday, we will have a comeback of Working Progress, the series of screenings of works-in-progress aiming to strengthen the community of local filmmakers through interaction with the audiences. In this special edition, we will also be inviting back some of the previously shown directors and other local film professionals to join the audience, as well as for social drinks before the screening. 

On top of this, we will have another fantastic return, with Happy Fuji News by Eric Kinny, a live coming back to the cinema, to make a truly unmissable event!
 

HAPPY FUJI NEWS
Eric Kinny | 2022 | Belgium | 33’ | English

After a first very successful visit in March, we are welcoming back our favourite “live-animated performed” film, Happy Fuji News, created with a technique which feels in equal parts innovative and archaic. Here the story of a tourist guide escaping commercial hardship through the chance meeting of an ASMR artist, will be told through over 200 woodcuts, all printed, written and carved by Eric Kinny, a Brussels-based artist. The woodcuts will be shown and thrown at the rhythm of an audio soundtrack with MIDI guitar music by Raphaël Desmarets, with sound effects, and voice acting by McCloud Zicmuse, Siet Phorae, Molly Rex, Ma Clément, Alice Perez & Joey Wright.

WORKING PROGRESS

Working Progress is a series of screenings that enable filmmakers to present their unfinished works to meet audiences with the aim of receiving feedback, generating a conversation and network for filmmakers and other film people! Filmmakers and works are chosen through an open call on a monthly basis. For interested parties, please email: workingprogress.ams@gmail.com

The screening will present around 3 work in progress films or audiovisual works, with each filmmaker or artist receiving up to 30 minutes to present their unfinished work and talk with the audience about the work. More details about the selected projects to follow in the week before the screening.
