EDITED (12/2): The screening will not be happening on 12/2/08. It has been rescheduled for 12/9.
Disclaimer: I have sporadic involvement with the Capitol Cinema Collective.
Double Disclaimer: I was involved in Lo Res Fest, so pieces of my footage will be getting screened Tuesday night.
Here is the press release from the Capitol Cinema Collective:
Bored with the same ol’, same ol’ programs on the television? Don’t feel like it’s worth going out to the movies to see the same rehashed plot once again? Then why not enjoy and support some local, DIY, community filmmaking instead!
On Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008, join Capitol Cinema Collective and the community filmmakers of LoRes Fest for a free screening of this year’s completed project at the traditional LoRes Fest HeadQuarters, La Paloma Sabanera Coffeehouse, at 405 Capitol Avenue, Hartford, CT. This is part of the now monthly Kino Kafé screening series. Kino Kafe is a free film series, and is the first project of the Capitol Cinema Collective. It has been a wildly successful venture.
Kino Kafe is a welcoming environment where anyone can sign up to be a curator and screen a film of their choice. Over the years we’ve shown classics, documentaries, art-house darlings, short films, anthologies, experimental pieces, French action films, Japanese & Brazilian horror films and just about everything in between.
Shameless Plug: DVDs of the LoRes Fest films (2006-2008) will be available for purchase. They make great stocking stuffers!
