DESCRIPTION:Drawing on accounts of Conquistador Hernan Cortes' attempt to colonize Baja 
 California, 16th Century cartographies, and a romance/adventure novel ripe 
 with Amazons; this sneak-preview of (in person) Sarolta Cump's 20-min. 
 experimental doc investigates the fantasies, fears, and fetishes of 
 European explorers through a post-colonial queer lens, and with a bawdy 
 sense of humor to boot! ALSO here for intro and Q&A, Nara Denning's 
 Neurotique No. 6 is an 8-min. "neo silent film" of erotic fantasy, rife 
 with surreal imagery and dark humor. Denning combines the influences of 
 German Expressionism and avant-garde cinema to breathe new life into the 
 notion of the cine-poem. PLUS Former SF artiste and now new faculty at 
 UMich, Alexis Bravos' Argonaut, a 16mm biography of the 19th Century 
 writer/explorer Eliza Farnham, in which a single event in her life is 
 oh-so-cinematically re-imagined. AND Martha Colburn's Wonder Woman 
 animation, Mike Kuchar's Paradise Gone, 3-D Venus Fly Traps, and Handsome 
 Sam Green, segueing from a Sarah Jacobson clip into an invitation to apply 
 for the grant in her name, for emerging women makers. +Sangria! *$7.\n
