GERMAN CINEMA SHOWCASE:
Ulrike Ottinger’s Under Snow

*co-sponsored by U of A’s Dept. of German Studies

In the Japanese region Echigo, the locals live with and under the heavy snowfall half
of the year. Because of this they have developed their own customs of everyday life,
festivals, and religious rituals. In a poetic way Ulrike Ottinger leads us into the reality
of the snow landscape with its beauty and austere living conditions, follows the
mythical tracks of the “gods of paths and roads” and mountain spirits, and places us
within the fairytale world of a beautiful fox and her lover.

WILD COMBINATION: A PORTRAIT OF ARTHUR RUSSELL

WED. 11/13 @7:30 *Carl’s Cine Club

Matt Wolf’s 2008 documentary Wild Combination tells the remarkable, improbable story of Arthur Russell, an Iowa transplant to New York City in the early 1970s who became a downtown fixture as a musician, artist and producer of early disco records. Arthur’s story is also the story of creating art under duress in the fertile, but also desperate milieu of downtown New York in the 70s and 80s. With remembrances by his collaborators Philip Glass, Allen Ginsberg, David Toop and others.
