ALGORITHMS Filmmakers in Person at the TC5 for Q&A’s

October 14, 2014 by Lamb L.

In India, a group of boys dream of becoming chess grandmasters. But this is no ordinary chess and these are no ordinary players. ALGORITHMS is a documentary that transports us into the little known world of blind chess. Filmed over three years in different parts of India, ALGORITHMS follows three boys and an adult champion who not only aspires to bring global recognition to India’s blind chess players, but also wants to encourage all blind children to play chess.

ALGORITHMS director Ian McDonald and producer Geetha J will participate in Q&A’s at our Town Center 5 theater after the 7:10 screenings on Friday and Saturday, October 17 and 18 and after the 1:40 show on Sunday the 19th.

In the middle of the staggering, surreal, and endangered Sumapaz Paramo ecosystem; F, a solitary explorer and guardian of the mountains, strives to protect the mystical and fragile land he inhabits. Facing the imminent return of violence, F has been preparing his escape, but before pursuing a new dimension he will have to endure a heartrending farewell. "Unfailingly provocative...colorful, expansive and rangy...this represents Sandino’s determined bid for auteur status." ~ Screen Daily  @hoperunshigh @esaugustosandino

#WeWereDangerous
In 1954 New Zealand, three rebellious girls—Nellie, Daisy, and Lou—are sent to a remote island institution, where they form an unbreakable bond in defiance of their strict matron. But as cruel punishments escalate, their friendship is tested, forcing them to choose between resistance and survival. "It’s a hopeful — sometimes borderline exuberant — rallying cry for girls to stick together across the various divides that people use to disempower them." ~ Indiewire

Tickets: http://laemmle.com/film/rimas-tuminas-war-peace | Subscribe: http://bit.ly/3b8JTym | The great Rimas Tuminas’ final Moscow production, the epic “War and Peace” focuses on its three families as a microcosm of the human condition. The Napoleonic Wars become the background for the lives, ambitions, hopes and sorrows of the open-hearted Rostovs, the honorable and uncompromising Bolkonskys, and the arrogant and ravishing Kuragins. Tuminas creates, explores and comprehends destinies, paradoxes, madness, love, joy and despair. The world he presents to the audience is a beautiful, aesthetic, theatrical and fragile one, but one at constant risk of being destroyed by the ominous comet that is already in the sky above.
