Feb. 25 - Albert Serra’s BIRDSONG / EL CANT DELS OCELLS, Director in Person

Don’t miss Albert Serra’s new feature, Birdsong, opening Wednesday February 25 at Anthology Film Archives. A follow-up to the minimalist but bold Don Quixote adaptation Quixotic/Honor de Cavelleria, Serra is back with a new feature which has already garnered much acclaim on the festival circuit. Birdsong gives us Serra’s take on the biblical story of the Three Kings. Serra will be at Anthology in person for the 7PM and 9:15PM screenings Wednesday along with Mark Peranson (editor and publisher of Cinema Scope) who made the brilliant making of, Waiting For Sancho. Sancho also screens along side of Birdsong this weekend at Anthology. “Young maestro Serra excels himself in this black & white film with a very dry yet evocative representation of the journey made by the three wise men to the stable of little Jesus. Pure Cinemark by an absolute master enriched with hilarious humour.”  - Rotterdam Film Festival 2009
Showing Wednesday, February 25 - Tuesday, March 3 at Anthology Film Archives.
