    The DocYard returns next week with filmmaker Zia A The DocYard returns next week with filmmaker Zia Anger in person with her live cinema performance, MY FIRST FILM, followed by Q+A. MY FIRST FILM screens Monday 2/24 at 7:00. Visit thedocyard.com for info and tickets (link in profile) . Following a loose script but adapted to every audience and situation, My First Film invites audience participation in consequential ways in the supposedly sacrosanct space of the black box theater. Anger sits in the front row and types on her laptop, live, while a mirror of her screen is projected. Besides the live text-based narration, she juggles multiple split screens, every action considered and folded upon itself. The performance starts with a tour of Anger’s recent artistic work, much of it ephemeral, saved and shared with audiences only through backdoor means. But soon, she settles into a sideways behind-the-scenes glimpse at her “first film,” a feature that she finished but that was never accepted into any film festivals.

    Kirk Douglas stars in PATHS OF GLORY, the stunning Kirk Douglas stars in PATHS OF GLORY, the stunning anti-war film from Stanley Kubrick. A landmark work by any standard, PATHS OF GLORY probably would not have been made without the involvement of Kirk Douglas as both producer and star. His reputation allowed the film to secure funding and his passion for the project lead him to support the bleak ending to the film – despite the concerns of the studio and even Kubrick himself. . PATHS OF GLORY screens Thursday 2/27 as part of our Kirk Douglas Memorial Tribute, alongside LONELY ARE THE BRAVE (Wed 2/26) and OUT OF THE PAST (Tue 2/25).
