Film/Video MOTION PICTURES: THE FILM AND VIDEO PORTRAITS OF JEM COHEN AND PETER SILLEN AMBER CITY BLOOD ORANGE SKY THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2000, 6:30 PM FREE LECTURE ROOM

AMBER CITY
DIRECTED BY JEM COHEN
Amber City takes us on a tour of an unnamed Italian city, but deliberately sidesteps the tourist attractions that make it famous. The film reveals an almost imaginary place--one that may actually draw us closer to the reality of its inhabitants. 1999, U.S., 48 minutes.

Cohen's video tribute to Catania, Sicily, captures the fantastic sights of a city without tourists, from the fish market to the distributor of pornographic films to a young girl in an orange sweater. 1999, U.S., 26 minutes.
