PRAXIS-3: 7 scenes by Dietmar Brehm

One of the filmmakers I was most pleased to be introduced to during the 2011 NYFF Views from the Avant Garde was Dietmar Brehm. Praxis 8 was screened at the festival and just this morning I have just found some online video available of his Praxis project which I enjoyed being able to watch.

Sack Barrow (exceprt) by Ben Rivers via Vimeo

I saw this at the NYFF Views from the Avant Garde in 2011. A compelling intimate portrait of the "end of the line" for a local factory.

Paolo Gioli’s Filmarilyn

I saw some of his work at the 2010 NYFF Views from the Avant Garde and have been looking to see everything I can. An essay from David Bordwell can be found here. Interesting interview with Paolo Gioli by Claudia D'Alonzo here
