ATC Film Video - Chicago Filmmakers - "There's a real gem in this program of six works by five young Chicagoans: .. Also delightfully playful to the point of absurdity is the program's feature, Tchavdar Gueorguiev's Narrow. This seems to be a narrative, but its story makes little sense. Parts often begin with a mundane conversation between a couple that soon becomes unaccountably ridiculous; other times it's the style that comes apart, as when the camera panning between two people talking becomes shakier and shakier. Characters play pool with apples; whole sections are seen in color negative. There are recurring references to Adam and Eve and to Christ, but the film adheres to no belief, not even atheism--evident in one take in which a character sings "Amazing Grace" with considerable conviction. While the film often confusing, I enjoyed its tone, which reminded me of the pointedly unfunny koan-like Russian jokes an ‚migr‚ friend used to tell. Also on the program are works by Dan Andries, John Beasley, and Bea Bellino"

ATC Film Video - Chicago Filmmakers - "There's a real gem in this program of six works by five young Chicagoans: Dubi Kaufmann's four-minute video My ABC, a playful rendering of learning, language, and life itself as absurd. In each of the video's 26 brief sections--one for each letter of the alphabet--a character in a bare, white-walled room acts out the section's title. For "Surrealism" he floats about in rapid stop-motion; for "Trade" he throws a few boxes out of the room and receives a few others. The room's shape echoes both the section titles and the shape of the screen--equivalences that, combined with the skits, take us to the brink of Zen. Also on the program are works by Dan Andries, John Beasley, and Bea Bellino" Number Nine - Eric Senne - Based on a famous song, number nine is about a disturbed and disoriented mind, as shown through snippets of dialogue, rapid scenes and repeated movements.

Sex, Drugs, Rock & Roll ? Journeymen - After much time in other's productions this cast and director have banded together to put up their own show, Eric Bogosian's explicit Sex, Drugs, Rock & Roll.
