SUMMARY:Meander Double Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Decade (2024) Paul Rodgers \n  \n“Decade” is an experimental documentary of the animator’s upbringing\, chronicling from birth to adolescence his journeys at the intersection of a prescribed faith and a larger world. Constructed from family photos\, this animated commentary depicts the relationship between a religious mother and her son whose coached memorization and recitation of a Rosary prayer evolves from empty mimicry and absurd tedium\, to comforting ritual. “Decade” is a dream-like\, non-narrative slideshow that uses dark humor and metaphor to capture the messiness of growth and the transformation of our belief systems. \n  \nMeander (2024) Lexi Bass \n  \nAs artificial intelligence replaces workers in our increasingly elderly global population\, companies engineering AI race robots amidst human inequities and emerging problems of AI sentience. The sum spells disaster for the human race in the dystopian world of Meander\, which evokes both ancient Greek mythology and near-future science fiction. Meander finds herself destitute in the Underworld with no way to finance escape other than offering her biological potential for surrogate pregnancy up to dubious experimentation in an underground facility. Meanwhile\, filmmaker/narrator\, Lexi Bass\, recounts her experiences of pregnancy and motherhood at the precipice of age 40 and the loss of her own mother shortly after\, questioning the future of humanity at the precipice of Artificial General Intelligence and Artificial Super-Intelligence.

SUMMARY:Hairspray
DESCRIPTION:“Hairspray” is a musical that addresses issues of segregation and racial discrimination in the 1960s. The story is set in Baltimore\, Maryland\, and centers around Tracy Turnblad\, a plump teenager with a passion for dancing\, who dreams of appearing on “The Corny Collins Show\,” a local TV dance program. \nKey themes related to segregation in “Hairspray” include: \nRacial Integration: The show highlights the racial segregation prevalent in the 1960s\, particularly in the media. “The Corny Collins Show” has “Negro Day” once a month\, which is the only time African-American dancers are allowed on the show. Tracy\, upon joining the show\, becomes an advocate for racial integration and fights for the inclusion of African-American dancers on the program every day. \nCivil Rights Movement: The musical reflects the broader Civil Rights Movement of the era. Tracy and her friends\, including African-American dancer Seaweed and his family\, represent the younger generation’s push for equality and justice. Their efforts culminate in a protest to integrate the TV show. \nChallenging Prejudices: Characters in the show confront and challenge their own prejudices and the societal norms that enforce segregation. Tracy’s mother\, Edna\, initially hesitant about Tracy’s involvement in the integration efforts\, eventually supports her daughter’s cause. \nEmpowerment and Change: The story underscores the power of individuals and communities to effect change. Tracy’s determination and the collective efforts of her diverse group of friends bring about a positive transformation in their community\, symbolizing hope and progress. \nOverall\, “Hairspray” uses humor\, music\, and dance to deliver a powerful message about the importance of inclusivity\, acceptance\, and fighting against racial injustice. \n﻿

SUMMARY:Meander Film Screening (Lyric Shorts Series)
DESCRIPTION:As artificial intelligence replaces health care (and other) workers in our increasingly elderly global population\, companies engineering AI continue to put profits above human suffering\, extreme wealth inequality and emerging problems of AI sentience. The sum spells disaster for the human race in the dystopian world of Meander\, which evokes both ancient Greek mythology and near-future science fiction. Meander finds herself destitute in the Underworld with no way to finance escape other than offering her biological potential for surrogate pregnancy up to dubious experimentation in an underground facility. Meanwhile\, filmmaker/narrator\, Lexi Bass recounts her experiences of pregnancy and motherhood at the precipice of age 40 and the loss of her own mother shortly after\, questioning the future of humanity at the precipice of Artificial General Intelligence and Artificial Super-Intelligence. \nAs part of the Lyric Shorts Series – If you are interested in showing your short film/documentary\, please send an email to Christian@lexingtonlyric.com
