Fusebox Cinema : Session 2 Saturday

6.30pm - 8pm

DOG=GOD

Dir. Lulu Keating & Karen Hines / CAN / 2009 / 4:30

A girl loves dogs. She wants to be one. This is an experimental, musical, ecstatic ode to dogs and those who both master and worship them.

My Name is Pochsy: An Industrial Film

Dir. Karen Hines / CAN / 2007 / 7:00

Pochsy works at Mercury Packers ... where she packs mercury. A trans-genre ode to industrial propaganda films and a scathing satire for our times. Spouting affirmations culled from sources as disparate as the Dalai Lama, ‘The Secret’ and the Wal-Mart Mission Statement, Pochsy is a spokesgirl for a species on the brink.

What’s My Mother F**king Name?

Dir. Amber Dawn / CAN / 2008 / 4:25

A female bondage model struggling to be free is juxtaposed with a narration that moves through issues of sex work, queer and feminine identity, class, immigration, consumerism, global health and quality of life.

Neurotica

Dir. Leah Meyerhoff / USA / 2001 / 4:00

A young woman eats her lunch according to a precisely calibrated routine. Today, she is interrupted by a man seeking sexual gratification.

Mind’s Eye

Dir. Bernice Ong / AUS / 2007 / 4:10

An odd mix of terror and detachment, as in a dream sequence, is situated in a state between reality and fiction.

A Tax on Pochsy

Dir. Karen Hines / CAN / 2009 / 18:30

Set in the waiting room at an audit from hell sits Pochsy, a mercury-poisoned factory worker who glows like the ghost of a silent film star and is pretty as a corpse. Part confession, part alibi, Pochsy is the subversively seductive anti-heroine.

Twitch

Dir. Leah Meyerhoff / USA / 2005 / 10:00

A young girl torn between two worlds: her domestic life where she must care for her wheelchair-bound mother and her escape into the emerging world of adolescence with her hormone-addled boyfriend.

The Crooked Eye

Dir. D.C Douglas / USA / 2009 / 18:44

Part live action and part animation, this film is a dreamy portrait of troubled young woman, Sharon, as she struggles with a recent divorce and a current perception problem.

Family History

Dir. Shelley Jordon / USA / 2009 / 2:40

An animated painting, which explores issues of vulnerability and how each new experience is filtered through our perceptions of previous ones.

Salome’s Picnic

Dir. Victoria Waghorn / AUS / 2008 / 1:00

A set picnic blanket sits unattended in the depths of a forest. Two lovers lie beyond coupled in a deep embrace. A generic picture of erotic bliss. Or is it?

Fyre

Dir. Maia Sinclair-Ferguson / AUS / 2009 / 4:00

A distorted narrative where abject images of female empowerment are transferred from body to body.

Hey F**k Face

Dir. Amber Dawn / CAN / 2008 / 4:15

Medical specimens, gender bending Christian clergy and kinky sex are just a few of the topics the whimsical narrator touches on.

Lash

Dir. Elka Kerkhofs / AUS / 2008 / 5:26

Celina discovers that religious persecution cannot kill the power of love.

Chick Addict

Dir. Victoria Waghorn / AUS / 2009 / 2:00

A playful & erotic experimental exposition of one woman & her hedonistic addiction for chicks.
