Argentine Malbec is currently the fastest growing wine varietal in the United States.

Originally producing inexpensive blends, the Argentines later developed “boutique”, “export quality”, “New World”, and “single varietal” wines. This movement, , has caused Malbec to boom. US consumers now seem to be enamored with the varietal, but will the boom last? Beautifully shot and with an original music score, Boom Varietal will unlock your understanding of Argentina’s great Malbec wines. 2011; 72 min.

Films by Stan Brakhage

Stan Brakhage is one of the most important figures in 20th-century American experimental film. Over the course of five decades, he explored a variety of formats, approaches, and techniques that included handheld camerawork, painting directly onto celluloid, fast cutting, in-camera editing, scratching on film and the use of multiple exposures. Interested in mythology and inspired by music, poetry and visual phenomena, Brakhage sought to reveal the universal in the particular, exploring themes of birth, mortality, sexuality  and innocence. His films are intensely expressive and lyrical. Some of the films to be screened include new film prints of Mothlight, Fire of Waters, Creation, Prelude: Dog Star Man and others. 1959-1979; 70 min.
