film festival highlight
This spring, ArtPower! Film presents an evening of
short films from Cannes Festival 2009 selected by
UCSD students James Kildunne and Bora Kim. Anders Wright (San Diego City Beat Critic) and Wolfgang Hastert (UCSD Visual Arts Professor) will take the stage with Jim following the screenings.
Check out the Pre-Flix mix with DJ Hashbrowns!!
Juvenile Status confronts what happens when the
worlds of children and adulthood suddenly come
into flux. In their own way, each film documents
what happens when characters are thrust into
a realm beyond their experience. In this new
environment, several key aspects of adolescence
emerge: rebellion against authority, interest in the
opposite sex, increased responsibilities, and some
newfound understanding of the world that starts to
erode youth’s innocence.
What sets these films apart is their refusal to
explicitly define what it means to be juvenile. It is
up to the viewing audience to piece together and
construct what a final answer might be.
All of the short films received the Cannes Film
Festival “Official Selection” honor and went on
to win several awards from other high profile
festivals. Two of the films, Baba and Diploma, were
made by student filmmakers. Klusums was made
by returning Cannes official selection honoree,
Laila Pakalnina. The other three films—Missen,
Largs og Peter, and Rumbo a Peor—were made by
professional filmmakers.
