DESCRIPTION:\n	Program of shorts premiering at the 2019 First Look festival
 . \n	\n	Approximate running time: 80 mins \n\n\n	Uppland (Dir. Edward Lawr
 enson. 2018\, 29 mins.) An architect and filmmaker from Europe visit Yekep
 a\, a town in the remote highlands of Liberia\, once a thriving mining com
 munity\, now decaying and desolate: a concrete ruin in the West African bu
 sh. Exploring Yekepa\, they discover promises of prosperity and forgotten 
 injustices. Edward Lawrenson (Abandoned Goods\, First Look 2016) returns w
 ith a film that explores the remnants of colonialism within architecture\,
  as well as within his own documentary impulse and project. The result is 
 a sharp\, rigorous\, reflective work. North American premiere. \n	\n	 Betw
 een My Flesh and the World’s Fingers (Dir. Talena Sanders. 2018\, 31 mins.
 ) Inspired by queer proto-feminist turn-of-the-century writer Mary MacLane
 \, director Talena Sanders creates a dreamy\, incantatory essay film. A ta
 ctile collage of MacLane’s still bold diary entries\, archival material\, 
 recreation\, and contemporary landscape photography of MacLane’s Butte\, M
 ontana\, the film melds past and present\, biography and autobiography\, i
 conoclasm and experimentalism. New York premiere. \n	\n	 All Voices Are Mi
 ne (Basir Mahmood. Pakistan. 2018\, 20 mins.) Artist Basir Mahmood address
 es notions of an emerging Pakistani film industry by celebrating the once 
 vibrant but now dormant Lahore-based studio system\, using a fragment of a
  song written by his father as the basis for sketchy\, stilted tableaus\, 
 kabuki-like mythopoetic homages to a film that never got made. The effect 
 is dreamlike\, disarming\, and slyly humorous. North American premiere. \n
 \nTickets: $15 (Free for members at the Film Lover level and MoMI Kids Pre
 mium levels and above). Order tickets online. (Members may contact members
