This event is part of the monthly Kaleidotropes series, curated by Jake Mikler of Little Red Booking. Each event features strange and unearthly arthouse cinema delights. An emphasis is placed on the uncanny — that which is dazzling but simultaneously disturbing. His selections are equally obtuse and obscure, providing a memorable film going affair. Like a kaleidoscope, the films are the shifting, symmetrical forms; juggling tropes that unite each one. Little Red Booking’s intention is to provide an invigorating cinematic experience, to showcase the rarely screened, and provide a communal environment that cinema’s were built for—a presentation of sight and sound in the close confines of the dark.
