THE FILMS AND VIDEOS OF RICHARD SERRA - PROGRAM FOUR
Railroad Turnbridge Directed by Richard Serra . US, 1976, 16mm, black & white, 
silent, 19 min. It is the bridge that causes both the landscape and the film 
itself to speak; the film follows the sequence of its procedures: turning, 
opening for the passing ship, turning again, closing for the passing train. The 
mechanics of the bridge become the grammar of the film. � Tom Holert, Richard 
Serra: Films and Videotapes, Kunstmuseum Basel (2017) Steelmill/Stahlwerk 
Directed by Richard Serra in collaboration with Clara Weyergraf. Germany, 1979, 
16mm, black & white, silent, 29 min. Serra�s film about the production of his 
sculpture Berlin Block (for Charlie Chaplin) (1977) at the Henrichsh�tte 
Hattingen steelworks in the Ruhr Valley, begun roughly one year before the 
first major wave of strikes in the German steel industry since the war, 
combines conventions from documentary film, agitprop, black-and-white 
photographic studies and architectural film. � Tom Holert, Richard Serra: 
Films and Videotapes, Kunstmuseum Basel (2017)

8:30, 631 W. 2nd Street
JOURNEYS BEYOND THE COSMODROME
Jeanne C. Finley's Journeys Beyond the Cosmodrome (2019, 53 min.) is a riveting 
portrait of a remote Eurasian culture as revealed through fantasies and fears 
of its adolescents. On the vast Kazakhstan Steppes, nine 16-year-olds prepare 
to graduate from the Akkol orphanage. Rockets launched from the nearby 
Cosmodrome inspire their dreams as they write about and perform imagined 
future-selves. Guided by the nomadic spirit and natural beauty of the Steppes, 
each explores questions of time and truth in relation to the challenging 
reality of their lives. Finley, a highly accomplished narrative and documentary 
video artist, seamlessly interweaves traditional Kazakh culture, global popular 
iconography, space travel, and individual performances to create a compelling 
vision of their journeys into an uncertain adulthood. The evening will conclude 
with live song from the Journeys' soundtrack, composed by Kri Schlafer, 
director of the Portland Threshold Choir. The Threshold Choir is comprised of 
over 200 choirs internationally that sing for those at the Thresholds of life. 
Members of the Orange County and Westside Choirs will sing at the conclusion of 
the screening.

18:30, CCCB (Centre de Cultura Contemporania de Barcelona)
MUSICAL SEQUENCE: MUSIC FOR THE EYES, FILM FOR THE EARS
The films in this session materially present music among their images, without 
attempting to illustrate or describe it. These are works that show the visible 
part of music on screen: sheet music, instruments, performers, rehearsals, 
recordings, recitals and audiences. Following the notes of Robert Bresson, here 
the music does not accompany, sustain or reinforce the images, instead, 
performed on screen, structuring and overturning them. Sequenza, Manon de Boer, 
2014, 16 mm, 14 min; The Oblique, Jayne Parker, 2018, 16 mm, 11 min; One, Two,
