SUMMARY:Rawstock
DESCRIPTION:This celebration of the educational films of yesteryear — a co-presentation with Washington University Libraries’ Film & Media Archive — makes its fifth consecutive appearance at SLIFF. Settle in with friends for a relaxing night of drinks\, kitsch\, and nostalgia. The films are all projected in old-fashioned 16mm using prints that were once shown in classrooms across the St. Louis area. As always\, the archive has uncovered some new delights\, and this year’s selections provide invaluable tips and tricks for optimal self-care\, such as avoiding lice and improving penmanship. When not sharing selections from its vast trove of 16mm educational films\, the Film & Media Archive serves as a nationally recognized center for scholarship\, teaching\, and learning.

The event is hosted by Andrea Sporcic Klund\, the Film Office specialist at the Missouri Division of Tourism\, who leads the discussion of both the directors’ five films — which screen Nov. 15-16 at the Tivoli — and general issues related to American-independent filmmaking.

SUMMARY:The Opera Bell Band with Narrative Shorts
DESCRIPTION:This evening of seven shorts — all with a musical component — is capped by a performance by the Opera Bell Band\, whose whimsical stop-motion-animated film “Green Lemon Buggy” is featured in the program. The Riverfront Times\, which says the group “aims to make every show a surreal circus experience\,” writes: “The Opera Bell Band likes to inject equal parts whiz-bang silliness and running-gag callbacks in its set. (Band member Shane) Devine and his multi-instrumentalist bandmates — Jess Adkins\, Jake Everett\, Kristina DeYong and Grant Martin — look more like a raggedy vaudevillian troupe than a band\, and its charmingly antiquated folk songs seem to come from some imagined past\, populated by jazzy 7th chords\, twinkly xylophones and seemingly nonsensical lyrics about produce.”

Six months earlier\, after hearing from 20 Black ministers that land ownership was key to self-sufficiency\, General William T. Sherman issued Special Field Order No.15\, allotting up to 40 acres of farmland to approximately four million African Americans. To help make their farms successful\, the government allowed some of the farmers to use government mules to help them get the work done. This is the origin of the phrase “40 Acres and a Mule.” \nRSVP on Facebook
