SUMMARY:DO U WANT IT?
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS for DO U WANT IT? at Roxie on Fri Feb 2\, 7p HERE\n  \nDirector Josh Freund and Sam Radutzky – 2017 USA  92 min Bay Area Premiere\, Local Filmmaker – Music/Documentary  \n  \nPapa Grows Funk was the quintessential New Orleans groove band\, a supergroup of local players who drew fans from around the world for their renowned Monday-night residency at the Maple Leaf Bar. Percolating with electric performances\, this doc wraps the tale of the band and its breakup into a larger story about New Orleans music\, crystallizing the tension between the ease of being a working musician in a city that supports homegrown talent like no other and the frustration that can come with wanting more than that.  Defining success proves to be as murky as achieving happiness.  \nDo U Want It? revisits the band’s career as they prepare for a final tour and album recording before a planned hiatus. The film asks the eternal question for New Orleans’ performers: in a city where you can make it as musician\, is that enough? Does success mean always leaving your home behind?- Chris Metzler \n\n  \n

SUMMARY:RUKUS
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS for Rukus at Roxie Fri Feb 2\, 7p HERE\nTICKETS for Rukus at Roxie Mon Feb 5\, 915p HERE \nDirector Brett Hanover – 2017 USA 86 min World Premiere – Hybrid Documentary/ LGBT/Punk/Furries \n  \nFurries\, filmmakers\, kinksters\, survivors. Ruckus is a fictionalized personal account of coming of age in Memphis at the turn of the century. This feature-length video project is based on work begun in collaboration with furry artist Rukus\, that was left unfinished after his death in 2008 \nA hybrid of documentary and fiction\, Rukus is a queer coming-of-age story set in the liminal spaces of furry conventions\, southern punk houses\, and virtual worlds. Rukus is a 20-year-old furry artist\, living with his boyfriend Sable in the suburbs of Orlando\, Florida. In his sketchbooks\, Rukus is constructing an imaginary universe—a sprawling graphic novel in which painful childhood memories are restaged as an epic fantasy. He crosses paths with Brett\, a 16-year-old filmmaker with OCD\, who is working on a documentary about kinky subcultures in spite of his own anxiety. After an interview leads to an online friendship\, their lives entwine in ways that push them into strange\, unexplored territories. \nBrett Hanover was last at IndieFest in 2008 with the excellent Bunnyland.- Jennifer Junkyard Morris \nCo-presented by FRAMELINE

SUMMARY:WITHDRAWN
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS for WITHDRAWN at Roxie Fri Feb 2\, 915p HERE\nTICKETS for WITHDRAWN at Roxie Thu Feb 8\, 7p HERE\n  \nDirector Adrian Murray -2017 USA 74 min Bay Area Premiere – Drama / Youth \n  \nBroke\, basement-dwelling\, millennial Aaron (Aaron Keogh) spends his days mostly alone. He preoccupies himself by playing video games\, trying to solve a Rubik’s Cube\, tending to a dying plant and soloing on a duct-taped Rock Band drum set. Constantly dodging and talking his way out of his roommate’s requests for rent\, Aaron is also trying to find ways to pay bills that he can’t afford. When he finds a lost credit card\, Aaron decides to hatch a defrauding scheme. \nDirector Adrian Murray’s first feature film is somewhat of a dry farce that manages to be both entertaining and subdued. Keogh has brilliant timing and a knack for physical comedy as the unhurried and mostly unperturbed Aaron\, who fumbles while trying to do the occasional\, perfunctory fast-talking and performs antic after antic\, like participating in one of those viral internet challenge videos\, more messing around on a Rubik’s Cube and a little bit of credit card fraud.- Jennifer Junkyard Morris \n\n

SUMMARY:SEQUENCE BREAK
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS for SEQUENCE BREAK at Roxie Fri Feb 2\, 915p HERE\nTICKETS for SEQUENCE BREAK at Roxie Wed Feb 7\, 915p HERE\n  \nDirector Graham Skipper – 2017 USA 80 min Northern California Premiere – SciFi Horror  \nA loner who restores arcade games finds the monotony of life broken when a gamer girl steps into his shop\, the same day a mysterious arcade cabinet shows up. As his romance flourishes\, so does his obsession with the game\, creating a man/machine carnal contact of the Cronenbergian kind. \nThe story of boy meets girl\, boy ignores girl for arcade game\, arcade game has sex with boy\, arcade game has sex with girl\, boy…. well\, I don’t want to ruin it. But seriously\, there is some weird shoit that goes down in this film. Chase Williamson (BEYOND THE GATES\, JOHN DIES AT THE END) stars as Oz\, a loner who excels at rebuilding and restoring ’80s arcade games. The shop that has served as the focal point is about to close and Oz has basically done nothing with his life\, and has next to no human interaction. Then Tess (Fabianne Theresa\, SOUTHBOUND\, JOHN DIES AT THE END) comes into the shop and everything changes. Oh\, her and the mysterious game that arrives without any instructions or provenance. Just as Oz and Tess’s romance flourishes\, so does his obsession with the cryptic game. As Oz plays\, he feels himself drawn more and more into the images flashing across the screen\, in an almost sexual way. No\, it’s not almost. This is man/machine carnal contact of the Cronenbergian kind. \nSEQUENCE BREAK is the kind of film that at its core is a simple story\, but its ability to transport you into another plane of existence through the sheer provocativeness of its imagery means the film continues to chill you long after its running time. Armed with an incredible 8-bit meets John Carpenter inspired soundtrack\, Skipper’s film makes out like a much darker version of Tron\, but instead of trying to get out of ‘gameland\,’ the game is seems trying to get a foothold in our world. A ‘sequence break\,’ in common usage\, involves the player of a video game finding a way to beat the way outside of the developer’s intention\, basically taking advantage of a glitch or exploiting an inadvertent hole in the world of the game. In the game\, Oz may just have found the sequence break for his own life.
