Manifesto, Julian Rosefeldt, 2015, Germany/Australia, 95 min From acclaimed visual artist Julian Rosefeldt, Manifesto features two-time Academy Award winner Cate Blanchett in 13 distinct, must-see vignettes that incorporate timeless manifestos from 20th century art movements. “The project, originally conceived as a multi-screen video installation, was reconstituted as a documentary by German artist Julian Rosefeldt. From the Futurists to the Dadaists, Pop Art in a punch up with Marxism - it is a whirling confetti of ideas and images, weirdly thrilling, and often very funny. Make no mistake, an absurdist streak runs through Manifesto, a capering anarchic spirit that aims to upend the applecart and turn everything on its head.” Dorothy Woodend, DOXA Festival Preceded by: A Spark in the Dark, Chris Healey & James Healey, 2017, YT, 16 min This short doc follows the stories of four Tinder users who share their perspective on Dawson City's unique relationship with dating apps.
