Presented in association with Canyon Cinema
Bruce Baillie, founder of both Canyon Cinema and San Francisco Cinematheque, visits San Francisco to present two screenings honoring a selection of departed filmmakers who have given a piece of their souls to the noble cause of avant-garde cinema. Having known several of the filmmakers presented in tonight’s show, Baillie will present his personal reminisces on these classic and forgotten films from Canyon Cinema’s vaults. (Dominic Angerame)
