<b>This screening will have a short introduction.</b>
David Lynch left his own signature on the history of cinema and arguably a genre unto himself. We celebrate one of the greatest visionary filmmakers of all time with a selection of films that demonstrate their own sense of bold storytelling, visual wonder and original voice. From the dreamlike and absurdism of <i>Blob and Wolf</i>, the unsettling <i>Fairy Moon</i>, haunting visuals in <i>Flock</i>, <i>The Parish</i> and <i>Coyotes</i>, characters losing themselves in their subconscious in <i>The Man That I Wave At</i> or the complex character study of <i>Winkie</i>, we promise a weird, dark and dreamy journey from some of the most exciting emerging directors today.
