SUMMARY:Shorts film program
DESCRIPTION:Shorts film program\n2nd Best – Sometimes you just can’t stop fighting. Riley and Adrienne (a real life couple from Portland\, OR) are coming back from a long day at IKEA already in a terrible mood\, and even though Riley knows Adrienne is on the brink of a breakdown about having to eat the only thing they have left in the house (a brick of cold tofu) Riley still decides it’s a good time to ask Adrienne to reassure her about their sex life. Director: Sarah Gertrude Shapiro \nA Family Memory – Hybrid animation-documentary about the last nice Christmas a family can remember. Director: Amira Dughri \nThe Lost Van Gogh – Shot from the POV of a painting\, this comedic caper frames perfectly the value of art.\nTwo art dealers make the discovery of a lifetime\, when a Van Gogh comes in to be appraised by an unsuspecting couple.

SUMMARY:Film: She Said Boom!: The Story of Fifth Column
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n \nShe Said Boom!: The Story of Fifth Column\nOfficial synopsis: “All Women Are Bitches” was not a chart topper\, but it represented a significant thread in queerpunk history thanks to the all-female art punk band Fifth Column. Former band members recall the scene in the 1980s and their progressive efforts to unite music\, film and zine culture to challenge conventional art practice\, gender roles and femininity. The band’s memories of the fun and feuds that fueled their creativity and built their reputations connect to the later Riot Grrrl movement. Most enlightening may be what was Toronto’s first zine war\, where rivals battled it out through handcrafted photocopies. Three decades may heal old wounds but clearly a few scars remain. \nFeatures present day interviews with Kathleen Hanna\, Vaginal Davis\, Caroline Azar\, Beverly Breckenridge\, GB Jones and Bruce La Bruce.
