New Directions in Cinema is a screening series presented by LIFT showcasing long time members and their innovative film works – filmmakers whose work bypasses traditional structures and techniques.

Filmmaker ELLE FLANDERS is joined by musician Marilyn Lerner for Bird On A Wire – a 35 minute piano / projection performance. Elle Flanders has created magnificent video/film projections that will be accompanied by original music by pianist extraordinaire Marilyn Lerner.

Experimental filmmaker CHRISTINA BATTLE presents in the same evening Memories of Moments From Here and There – a series of recent works plus three new works projected in 16mm and 35mm film.

LIFT is extremely pleased to present these artists and their outstanding work. 2006 marks the 25th Anniversary of LIFT and this installment of New Directions in Cinema is the beginning of a year long celebration of LIFT and its member’s amazing contribution to the cinematic tradition.
