The highlights were the final two films Memory Worked by Mirrors by Stephan Broomer, and The Storm by Blake Williams. Set to a score by Massimo Guida, the former was all about the ephemeral nature of memory. The film focused on a mirror in the filmmaker’s backyard that reflected his childhood home. The mirror becomes a shadowy portal, distorting scant images of structure, sky, and earth. Originally a silent film, Guida added a musical narrative with dramatic arcs, and textural colours that coveyed a deeper understanding of the film, which would have come across as more of a study in moving image, rather than a stand alone work.
