SUMMARY:Roxie Theater: Earth Mama
DESCRIPTION:Gia is a young mother fighting for her children. Her son and daughter are in foster care\, and now her unborn child could also be taken away. Struggling to work enough hours with court-mandated classes\, she’s barely making ends meet. Gia loves her children unconditionally\, but how will she give them the future they deserve? \nSavanah Leaf’s directorial feature debut is an intimate depiction of a mother’s fear and love. Leaf’s elegant visual language interjects lush visions of hope and visceral manifestations of Gia’s deepest fears into her everyday life. Moving performances root the film in authenticity\, including that of newcomer Tia Nomore\, whose Gia is tender\, conflicted\, and layered. The warm texture of the film envelops us in Gia’s reality\, while a knowing score smiles at the beauty of everyday moments. \nBetween the backdrops of Gia’s counseling classes and portrait studio job\, Leaf crafts a story that redefines perspectives and asks us to bear witness — to vulnerability and the desire to be seen. Leaf’s permeating vision brings fullness and complexity to Gia\, reclaiming her humanity and honoring the different forms love can take. – Sundance. \nWritten & directed by Savanah Leaf. With Tia Nomore\, Erika Alexander\, Doechii\, Sharon Duncan-brewster\, Dominic Fike & Bokeem Woodbine.

SUMMARY:Roxie Theater: Earth Mama
DESCRIPTION:Gia is a young mother fighting for her children. Her son and daughter are in foster care\, and now her unborn child could also be taken away. Struggling to work enough hours with court-mandated classes\, she’s barely making ends meet. Gia loves her children unconditionally\, but how will she give them the future they deserve? \nSavanah Leaf’s directorial feature debut is an intimate depiction of a mother’s fear and love. Leaf’s elegant visual language interjects lush visions of hope and visceral manifestations of Gia’s deepest fears into her everyday life. Moving performances root the film in authenticity\, including that of newcomer Tia Nomore\, whose Gia is tender\, conflicted\, and layered. The warm texture of the film envelops us in Gia’s reality\, while a knowing score smiles at the beauty of everyday moments. \nBetween the backdrops of Gia’s counseling classes and portrait studio job\, Leaf crafts a story that redefines perspectives and asks us to bear witness — to vulnerability and the desire to be seen. Leaf’s permeating vision brings fullness and complexity to Gia\, reclaiming her humanity and honoring the different forms love can take. – Sundance. \nWritten & directed by Savanah Leaf. With Tia Nomore\, Erika Alexander\, Doechii\, Sharon Duncan-brewster\, Dominic Fike & Bokeem Woodbine.

SUMMARY:Roxie Theater: Inland Empire
DESCRIPTION:David Lynch’s labyrinthine Hollyweird freakout—his last feature to date—is his most uncompromising creation: a fugue-state trawl through the darkest realms of the subconscious that pushes his straight-from-the-id imagery and sinister dream logic to their extremes. When she accepts a role in a supposedly cursed production\, a movie actor on the verge of a comeback (Laura Dern\, in a fearless performance) finds herself tumbling down a series of increasingly disturbing rabbit holes (complete with literal rabbits) that lead her from the glittering heights of Tinseltown to the depths of human depravity. In his first feature shot on digital video\, Lynch makes visionary use of the medium’s smudged textures and murky chiaroscuro to enhance the hallucinatory\, nightmarish quality of what may be his magnum opus. \nScreening in conjunction with Alexandre O. Philippe’s documentary LYNCH/OZ\, The Wizard of Oz (35mm) and a number of Lynch’s most haunting films as part of this Summer’s You’re Not In Kansas Anymore series.

SUMMARY:Roxie Theater: Close to Vermeer
DESCRIPTION:Go behind the scenes of the largest Vermeer exhibition ever mounted\, now on view at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Capturing the imagination of the art world – with glowing reviews\, global publicity\, and tickets sold out through the entirety of its run – the Rijksmuseum’s Vermeer retrospective is nothing short of an historic event. Suzanne Raes’s film follows curators\, conservators\, collectors\, and experts in their joint mission to shine a new light on the elusive Dutch Master. This fascinating documentary reveals everything from the quiet diplomacy required to get the Vermeers to the Netherlands and the new technical knowledge gained by scanning the paintings layer by layer\, to the shocking news that one work may not be by Vermeer after all. In the process\, we discover how Vermeer was able to depict reality so differently from his contemporaries. But above all\, Close to Vermeer shows the infectious love Vermeer’s art inspires. As one curator lovingly puts it: “A good exhibition should change your view of the world. Vermeer can really do that.”

SUMMARY:Roxie Theater: Earth Mama
DESCRIPTION:Gia is a young mother fighting for her children. Her son and daughter are in foster care\, and now her unborn child could also be taken away. Struggling to work enough hours with court-mandated classes\, she’s barely making ends meet. Gia loves her children unconditionally\, but how will she give them the future they deserve? \nSavanah Leaf’s directorial feature debut is an intimate depiction of a mother’s fear and love. Leaf’s elegant visual language interjects lush visions of hope and visceral manifestations of Gia’s deepest fears into her everyday life. Moving performances root the film in authenticity\, including that of newcomer Tia Nomore\, whose Gia is tender\, conflicted\, and layered. The warm texture of the film envelops us in Gia’s reality\, while a knowing score smiles at the beauty of everyday moments. \nBetween the backdrops of Gia’s counseling classes and portrait studio job\, Leaf crafts a story that redefines perspectives and asks us to bear witness — to vulnerability and the desire to be seen. Leaf’s permeating vision brings fullness and complexity to Gia\, reclaiming her humanity and honoring the different forms love can take. – Sundance. \nWritten & directed by Savanah Leaf. With Tia Nomore\, Erika Alexander\, Doechii\, Sharon Duncan-brewster\, Dominic Fike & Bokeem Woodbine.

SUMMARY:Roxie Theater: Carne trémula [Live Flesh]
DESCRIPTION:Taut and torrid\, Live Flesh delivers everything you could possibly want from a 90s erotic thriller: smoldering glances\, smoking guns and heaps of high-class carnality. Approaching Dostoevsky by way of Eszterhas\, Almodóvar sharpens a paperback tale of infidelity and revenge into a something both poetic and political. Pared-down by its director’s florid standards\, Live Flesh still surprises at every turn – nowhere more vividly than in Javier Bardem’s portrayal of David\, a cop-turned-Paralympian trying to save his marriage after the assailant whose bullet put him in a wheelchair is released from prison. Intense\, athletic and uncontainable\, Bardem pushes Almodóvar to new kinetic and expressive heights\, yielding some of the director’s most viscerally thrilling sequences to date. While its technique and emotional depth paved the way for the masterpieces to come\, Live Flesh also satisfies a more basic moviegoing lust – for unadulterated popcorn.
