This coming week at the Rooftop Films Summer Series features nights of artistic and emotional intrigue. On Friday the 13th, we will show Oskar Alegria's poetic documentary THE SEARCH FOR EMAK BAKIA, in which he re-traces the steps of renowned surrealist artist and filmmaker Man Ray. Music for the night is from Upstate guitarist Alexander Turnquist, whose mellow yet intricate melodies will have you swayin' in the summer breeze. We'll be down in Gowanus at The Old American Can Factory, so come through and catch a glimpse of the Kentile Floors sign before its rumored demise. Filmmaker Osark Alegria will be with us all the way from Spain for a chat after the film and the general cavorting and merriment that famously follow our shows. The next night, Saturday the 14th, we'll be back at Industry City in Sunset Park for a program of romantic shorts called LOVE HURTS. These shorts are all about the power of love, in all its beautiful, messy, destructive glory. Both live-action and animated shorts from across the world will blow your mind while tugging your heartstrings. We're also excited to bring Brent Hoff's Emotional Arcade to the Rooftop experience. The Emotional Arcade is an interactive installation where participants engage in competitive games using their emotions.
