The annual School of Film/Video Showcase wraps up the week with a screening of juried films produced by students from the Program in Film and Video on Saturday (May 4) at REDCAT.
Some of the films have already enjoyed positive critical reception, notably Naoko Tasaka’s flower, a film about a bear who eats his entire family during winter hibernation. It was awarded the George Manupelli Founder’s Spirit Award at this year’s Ann Arbor Film Festival.
