Short Film Program –
“Kneel Through the Dark” – Director: James Batley.
US Premiere. “An exploration of the mystical subconscious rituals that govern our lives and bind us or drive us apart. As constant and as intangible as the seasons of the earth and the elements which comprise us; that ebb and flow like the tide; that nourish like a mother and torment like an unseen demon.”
Feature Film –
Beyond the Black Rainbow – 2010, Rated R, Director: Panos Cosmatos. “Held captive in a specialized medical facility, a young woman with unique abilities seeks a chance to escape her obsessed captor. Set in the strange and oppressive emotional landscape of the year 1983, Beyond the Black Rainbow is a Reagan-era fever dream inspired by hazy childhood memories of midnight movies and Saturday morning cartoons. Rainbow is the outlandish feature film debut of writer and director Panos Cosmatos. Featuring a hypnotic analog synthesizer score by Jeremy Schmidt of “Sinoia Caves” and “Black Mountain,” Rainbow is a film experience for the senses.”

Sigmund’s Shorts: Kneel Through the Dark
Second Sunday Screenings
KNEEL THROUGH THE DARK A riff on Aleister Crowley and all that is hidden. Alternating grainy black-and-white with bursts of fiery, glittering colour and a searing soundscape. This film elegantly laces together animal totems and occult motifs in its exploration of the creative potential of the unconscious. Echoing primary processes, symbols and images are condensed and displaced as we are brought close to the realm of the drive itself, to a place abounding in beauty and terror.
Filmed in Super 8mm.
Free with admission – no need to book.
