Bring Your Own Brigade
Oscar®-nominated filmmaker Lucy Walker’s documentary captures the horror and heroism of the deadliest week of wildfires in California history and explores the causes of a global crisis that is quite literally burning our world to the ground.
In Pursuit of Silence
In our race towards modernity, amidst all the technological innovation and the rapid growth of our cities, silence is now quickly passing into legend. Beginning with an ode to John Cage’s seminal silent composition 4’33’, the sights and sounds of this film delicately interweave with silence to create a contemplative and cinematic experience that works its way through frantic minds and into the quiet spaces of hearts. As much a work of devotion as it is a documentary, In Pursuit of Silence is a meditative exploration of our relationship with silence, sound, and the impact of noise on our lives.
