Lately - and always, you say? - I've been wondering what it's all about. I submit a film to a faraway festival. I post a laurel on Facebook or here. It apparently screens, maybe even gets an award ... silence.
Similarly with Her Magnum Opus which Consonance Dance & Music Festival recently awarded this "Diploma." But what's infinitely more satisfying, they also created a page with "reviews" from professionals and audience members which touched me. Check out the page here, with a few excerpts below.
Movement here is more than just choreography - it is memory, language and emotion all at once. The way the film blends structured dance with unscripted, raw motion makes it feel deeply human, like watching someone's soul express itself in real time. It's not just about dance; it's about presence, about leaving something behind without saying a word.

This film doesn't rush. It moves like a slow waltz, lingering in moments, letting glances and silences speak louder than words. Watching it felt like sitting in a quiet room filled with people who love each other but know they don't have much time left together.

As long as we're here, there does happen to be a screening that I can attend! The Thomas Edison Film Festival, with whom I have a very long history, will show Inter Library Loan at the Hoboken Historical Museum on Saturday, March 8.
Doors open at 6:30 for wine & pizza. At 7:00 a brief hello from me and the Executive Director Jane Steuerwald. $10.00 admission gets you in, and supports TEFF,
I hope you'll join me!
