DIRECTOR IN ATTENDANCE!
THE PERFECT SHOW: The Films Of Karl Krogstad
“THE PERFECT SHOW is Karl Krogstad’s example of the most direct and unconventional expression possible — and it’s darned close to perfect! The program includes five new short films plus a lot of 'fillers.' The fillers aren’t really films, but the songs of birds. And when these birds sing you can almost smell the tail feathers. The show lasts about one hour and is like a feather that actually falls like a coin, to land on its edge. They are strange.” –Karl Krogstad
