"Disappearing Act," launched as an annual event in 2009, is a film showcase highlighting the vitality of European cinema. This year it presents 19 films that have made a name for themselves among critics and on the festival circuit, yet remain largely unknown to American audiences. Admission Free.
Featured Works:
Special guests: directors Srđan Koljevic, Filip Remunda, Ioana Uricaru, producer Sabine Schenk, and composer Olga Neuwirth.
This year's industry panel discussion devoted to the issues facing foreign-language films and their access to American screens and audiences, a traditional part of "Disappearing Act," will present the Subtitled Cinema Initiative. Chairing the panel will be Carlos A. Gutierrez, co-founding director of Cinema Tropical, joined by Oana Radu, deputy director of the Romanian Cultural Institute New York; Delphine Selles-Alvarez, cinema program officer of the Cultural Services of the French Embassy; and John C. Woo, executive director of Asian CineVision.
