Kuessipan Reveals Teen Life in an Innu Community: Interview w/ Director Myriam Verrault -- READ: bit.ly/redefineinnu “I think cultural appropriation is a very important issue and a debate that we have to have in this society, because so many people do that with no respect. It’s not forbidden to make movies with a point of view that is exterior to another minority… but I think there’s a way to do it, and I think you can’t tell a story about them without them.” - Director Myriam Verreault /// Authentic and complex in its storytelling, Kuessipan is a naturalistic portrait of two teenage best friends living on an Innu reserve near Quebec, as they come of age in a colonized country. Loosely based off a book of the same name by First Nations Canadian writer Naomi Fontaine, the narrative feature film screenplay for Kuessipan was written as a collaboration between Fontaine and the film’s director, Myriam Verreault. The joint endeavor can be seen as a poetic hand-off between cultures. Translated from the Innu language, Kuessipan means “your turn” — and the film serves a strong indicator that authentic Indigenous stories are long overdue for their rightful place on-screen. /// This film is screening now at Northwest Film Forum @nwfilmforum -- details and tickets at nwfilmforum.org/calendar Full interview for Kuessipan at bit.ly/redefineinnu #Seattlefilm #SeattleFilmmaker #NWFF #NWFilmForum #NWFilms #NWFilmmakers #PNWFilms #ExperimentalFilm #ExperimentalFilm #NativeFilm #NativeFilms #IndigenousFilm #IndigenousFilms #FirstNationsFilm #FirstNationsFilms #Innu #Kuessipan #NaomiFontaine #MyriamVerreault @naofontaine @myverreault @tracyrectorart @longhousemedia @niatero
In MOGUL MOWGLI, Riz Ahmed, who just nabbed an Oscar nomination for The Sound of Metal, plays Zed, a rapper who develops a rare autoimmune disorder while just on the cusp of mainstream success. Forced to move back in with his conservative Pakistani immigrant family, Zed grapples with his cultural identity and the “business of Britishness” in this drama that was also co-written by Ahmed. – ALISON SMITH United Kingdom | 2020 | 90 minutes | Bassam Tariq PRERECORDED Q&A Screening features a prerecorded Q&A with Bassam Tariq (director) and Riz Ahmed (writer/actor). /// ⠀ Our @SIFFNews previews for Seattle International Film Festival 2021 are here!

EVERYDAY MUSIC is closing ❤ @everday_music_seattle #Repost @vanishingseattle After nearly 20 yrs on #CapitolHill & 4 different locations, the beloved Everyday Music at 1520 10th Ave is closing May 16th. EM announced in February, citing “ongoing pandemic struggles & no rent relief.” #EverydayMusic offers 100K+ used records, tapes, CDs, VHS, DVDs & more – drawing music lovers & artists from all over the world – including @bill.frisell and @EltonJohn (who went on a vinyl shopping spree)! EM also hosted in-store shows for local groups like @chazzybelt & @sassyblackcat. Opened in 2003 by Scott Kuzma, Everyday Music was displaced from its original Broadway location by light rail construction. In 2008 it moved to #Broadway & Pine in the space that’s now Blick Art Supplies. Everyday moved to 10th Ave in 2010, next to Elliott Bay Book Co for about a year, then was displaced by high rent (the building is owned by Hunter’s Capital). It’s been in its current location next to Rancho Bravo (formerly KFC) for 9 yrs. EM also has a shop in Bellingham & 2 in PDX. Apparently a pandemic rent reduction was asked from landlords & #Seattle’s was the only shop refused. Since 2014, there’s been a #redevelopment plan for the 1926 former #AutoRow building (BMW service garage followed by a parking garage - VS intern Aeon made a music video there!) plus Rancho Bravo, for a 6-story apartment building. Property owner/developer Ron Amunduson told Capitol Hill Seattle those plans aren’t moving forward soon & he’s hoping to find a new tenant. When I stopped in, many customers were expressing sadness at EM’s closure - & dread over what might replace it…as one older gentleman said, “it probably won’t be meant for me.” Silver lining: a couple employees are hoping to carry on EM’s legacy in some way/re-open a smaller record shop elsewhere in the city…stay tuned for more info on how you can support! Go pay your respects to EM & that incredible wide open space perfectly suited for worshipping music. They’re open 11-6 everyday. Many thx @aeon_corvidae for the research! #seattlemusic #seattleculture #seattlecommunity #seattlecharacter #seattlesoul #displacement #gentrification
Illustration of Sutaya al-Mahamali by Fahmida Azim, from “Muslim Women Are Everything” -- full article on southseattleemerald.com ~ by Samira George (This article was originally published by Real Change and has been reprinted under an agreement.) Azim immigrated to the United States from Bangladesh when she was 6 years old. She has faced many obstacles while pursuing a career as a professional artist. Even her choice of medium was influenced by the financial factors; art supplies like acrylics are expensive, whereas digital materials are infinite. Family support was nonexistent. Azim explained that it’s been hard for South Asian Muslims like herself to convince family members that there’s a place in the arts for her. “When you’re an immigrant, the story you’re told about what success is different,” she said. “I don’t think it’s because of some stereotype of culture … that we aim for just these three jobs: doctor, engineer, or lawyer. I think it’s because we’re put in a position where we’re told we can’t pursue anything else.” #ssemerald #southseattleemerald #blackhistorymatters #seattleart #seattleartist #seattleartists @realchangenews @fahmida_azim @samirakgeorge #SouthAsianArt #SouthAsianArtist #MuslimArt #MuslimArtist #VisualArt #VisualArtist
THE ALDRICH CARE BOX! #Repost @thealdrich • • • • • Check out our current exhibition, the Aldrich Care Box, in Forbes (@forbes). The Aldrich Care Box is a year-long traveling exhibition unbound to a physical space. ⁠ ⁠ “The box is a miniature museum, a viewing space, a crate,” says Senior Curator Amy Smith-Stewart, who along with Director of Education Namulen Bayarsaihan, conceived of the idea for the care boxes. “There’s an opportunity to install these artworks in your own home, among your own things.” In a way, Smith-Stewart notes, this brings the artworks closer to their moment of creation. ⁠ ⁠ Read the full article in @forbes via @thealdrich! ⁠ Aldrich Care Boxes are available for loan out to the public January 31 to December 31, 2021 from The Museum’s Front Desk.

POTATO DREAMS OF AMERICA is screening at SIFF 2021! Catch our new interview with director Wes Hurley: bit.ly/redefinepotato⠀ ⠀ ///⠀ ⠀ Seattle writer and director Wes Hurley’s feature debut, Potato Dreams, is at once a colorful pastiche of past memories and an unconventional queer coming-of-age tale. Premiering at SXSW 2021, the film is set partly in Vladivostok, Russia, just after the fall of Communism, and partly in Seattle, Washington, after Hurley and his mother eventually immigrate there.⠀ ⠀ While still in Russia, Hurley is portrayed by Hersh Powers as “Little Potato” — a young boy who becomes obsessed with American movies as soon as bootleg TV channels become available. He shares company with his mother (Sera Barbieri), who works as a nurse in the corrupt prison system, and his grandmother (Lea DeLaria), whose love is cold and stern. Also in the atmosphere are peer-aged students Little Potato has almost nothing in common with, and a flamboyant Jesus Christ (Jonathan Bennett), which symbolizes Hurley’s “obsession” with Jesus as a young Christian boy.⠀ ⠀ Complete with world-bending elements of magical realism, custom-built sets, musical numbers, and plenty of ensemble cast, Potato Dreams of America manages to squeeze a deeply considered aesthetic and high production value out of a modest budget. It drew on the collaborative expertise of cinematographer Vincent Pierce, lighting designer Robert Aguilar, who has a theater background, and production designer Kristen Bonnalie to push forth a cohesive cinematic vision.⠀ ///⠀ ⠀ READ THE INTERVIEW w/ WES: bit.ly/redefinepotato⠀ ⠀ GET THE TICKETS @ SIFF (April 8-18): siff.net/festival ⠀ READ ALL OUR FESTIVAL PICKS: bit.ly/redefine2021siff ⠀ @potatodreamsfilm @mischajakupcak elizashelnuts @sarahroxycrowe @potatohurley #SeattleFilm #SeattleFilms #SeattleFilmmaker #NWFilms #NWFilmmakers #NWFilmmaker #SeattleFilmmakers #NWFilm #PacificNWFilms #FilmEducation #FilmWorkshop #PacificNWFilmmaker #PacificNWFilmmakers #WesHurley @siffnews
