DESCRIPTION:\n"She's the real McCoy. Lynne is making films in her head all
  the time. She is one of those rare directors who creates the kind of film
 s that just would not be there if she didn’t make them."\n--Tilda Swinto
 n\n\nBursting onto the scene at age 30 with the riveting Ratcatcher\, whic
 h was praised by the New York Times as a “brilliant directorial debut\,
 ” Scottish filmmaker Lynne Ramsay has received worldwide attention for t
 he three features now under her belt. Born in Glasgow\, she first studied 
 photography\, then focused on cinematography at England’s National Film 
 and Television School\; her subsequent filmography is renowned for its bol
 d visual sensibility. Her final school project\, Small Deaths\, went on to
  win the Best Short Film prize at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival (as
  did her third short\, Gasman). In fact\, each of her features has premier
 ed at Cannes\, and she garnered a Palme d’Or nomination at the 2011 fest
 ival for her latest work\, the haunting We Need to Talk About Kevin. \nRam
 say’s films plumb the depths of childhood and young adulthood\, unblinki
 ngly tackling such difficult issues as grief\, guilt\, family dynamics\, a
 nd the rippling repercussions of death. The “rough and tumble” moniker
  of this series articulates the defining quality of the work: social reali
 sm that hits hard and hits home. But it is also filled with vivid artistry
  and a rich poetry that blur the line between dreams and reality—at turn
 s both brutal and subtle.\nSpotlighting a filmmaker who has hit her stride
 \, this In Context retrospective and premiere showcases a body of work tha
 t “bears a powerful personal imprint…. [Ramsay’s] films are very muc
 h the product of an original vision” (Sight and Sound).\nThanks to Dan B
 erger (Oscilloscope Laboratories)\, Haden Guest and David Pendleton (Harva
 rd Film Archive)\, Steven DeMille (Image Entertainment) and Brooke Ford an
 d William Gruenberg (Millennium Entertainment) for their program assistanc
