We’ve added an additional free screening of the Water Calling Short Films, 7 p.m., Wednesday, May 9 at SIFF Cinema. Go here for the complete film schedule and locations.
In the 70-minute presentation, five filmmakers tap into the flow of water and invite viewers to reflect on the preservation of our water resources—from drinking water through drainage. The short films vary in length and format—from a fairy-tale approach to sci-fi-like images to stop animation to a portrayal of water as a healing force.
The films are part of several temporary artworks that address environmental sustainability for The Next Fifty, the 50th anniversary of the 1962 World’s Fair Seattle Center. Go here for artwork descriptions, dates and locations.
