Experimental Tuesdays at the Union Cinema presents….
THE PINK EGG
directed by Jim Trainor
Luis Buñuel’s observation – “You can find all of Shakespeare and de Sade in the lives of insects” – was the inspiration for this experimental horror movie, in which human actors wordlessly enact the life-cycles of wasps and bees. Its purpose is to depict with emotion, humor and unnerving specificity an alternative society that really exists and has nothing to do with human beings. A highly stylized depiction of nature in all her deceitful glory. (71 min., 2016, USA)
Director Jim Trainor to be in attendance!
Star performers include Lori Felker, of the Faculty of the Department of Film, Video, Animation, and New Genres, who inhabits the role of “Ampulex, the Cockroach Wasp.” Pictured, and also to be in attendance.
