SUMMARY:Araya
DESCRIPTION:New restoration! \nIn the days when salt was worth its weight in gold\, Spanish colonists in the Araya peninsula of northeast Venezuela built a fortress to guard against pirates; now only ruins lie at the center of Margot Benacerraf’s lyrical portrait of three salt worker families in one of the driest places on Earth. A film of such lasting beauty that Jean Renoir told Benacerraf after seeing the film: “Above all… don’t cut a single image!” \n(Margot Benacerraf\, 1959\, Venezuela\, Spanish w/ Eng subs\, 90 mins\, DCP)

SUMMARY:The Falling Sky | Milwaukee Premiere
DESCRIPTION:The Yanomami people\, relatively isolated in the Brazilian Amazon until the 1970s dictatorship opened their lands to extraction\, hold a time-worn funeral rite said to hold up the sky against those who would tear it down\, and to galvanize themselves in their struggle against the encroachment of illegal gold miners. Narrated by Yanomami shaman Davi Kopenawa and inspired by his 2010 book\, this breathtaking documentary highlights the resilience of the ancient community and the wonder of the world they fight to protect. \n(Eryk Rocha & Gabriela Carneiro da Cunha\, 2024\, Brazil\, Yamomami and Portuguese w/ Eng subs\, 82 mins\, DCP)

SUMMARY:American Dreams (lost and found)
DESCRIPTION:16mm print! \nMilwaukee-born filmmaker James Benning’s austere personal history of the USA from 1954 to 1976\, told through an amalgamation of his Hank Aaron card collection with the scrolling scrawl of would-be Nixon assassin Arthur Bremer’s diaries. Benning describes the film as an homage to his own coming-of-age\, combining his love of baseball with interests in American history\, politics\, and popular culture to achieve a formally complex and aesthetically challenging take on the American Dream. \n(James Benning\, 1984\, USA\, 55 mins\, 16mm)

SUMMARY:Eight Bridges | Milwaukee Premiere
DESCRIPTION:“It seems to be the time to consider bridges.” James Benning’s latest exercise in looking and listening centers on meeting points between built and natural worlds\, ranging from the cinematic (San Francisco’s Golden Gate) to the historical (Selma’s Edmund Pettus) to the self-referential (North Dakota’s Hi-Line Railroad). Its rich sound and painterly compositions seize variously on the passing of clouds\, the flowing of water\, and the churn of commuters to link physical manifestations of the American project with contemporary flows of people and capital. \n(James Benning\, 2026\, USA\, 82 mins\, DCP)
