ABOUT THE FESTIVAL:




FROM AFAR II is a virtual film festival that reflects on personal and national
memory; monumentalism; and collective inheritance. These five films question the
ways we produce—and are subjugated by—the recursive images that saturate
everyday life. The festival is organized by Roland Dahwen (artist, filmmaker,
and the Cooley's 2020–2021 artist-in-residence) and supported by Cooley curator
Stephanie Snyder. FROM AFAR II is a program of the Cooley Gallery, presented in
collaboration with Converge 45. Dahwen explores each film in a series of
accompanying essays, available at his website.







FROM AFAR II features:







 * A Thousand Suns (2013) by Mati Diop (45 min.)
 * Butter Lamp (2013) by Hu Wei (15 min.)
 * The Blue Eyes of Yonta (1991) by Flora Gomes (90 min.)
 * Taipei Story (1985) by Edward Yang (110 min.)
 * Mekong Hotel (2012) by Apichatpong Weerasethakul (60 min.)







FROM AFAR II will be presented online for free, through a special collaboration
with the Northwest Film Forum. All films will be available on-demand for the
duration of the festival: August 27 – September 11, 2021.










Note: Due to distributor restrictions, the films are only available to view
within the United States.
