Iron Bridge Pictures, filmmaker David Pushkin and collaborator Tyler Fairbanks present their film, “Edie and Penelope Newcomb” (14min) at Movement Research in Brooklyn, New York. The film explores the relationship between a mother and daughter. The mother (Edie) is suffering from memory loss. The daughter (Penelope) is both a care provider and antagonist. Edie shares her “lack” of memory as a way to uncover insights into the more eternal aspects of living.
The film will screen as part of the Open Performance series of Movement Research: http://movementresearch.org/performancesevents/openperformance/schedule.php
The program begins at 8pm and includes three performances and the screening. A discussion will follow.
