Hosted by The Central Heating Lab at ACT, the RAWSTOCK Summer Film Festival includes an all-star lineup of independent Seattle filmmaker premieres. RAWSTOCK Film Festival was launched in 2004 as a showcase for raw, irreverent local filmmakers and focuses on cutting-edge animation, dark comedy, and grindhouse style action. Now in its fifth year, RAWSTOCK has grown to encompass movies, music, and comedy from all over the world.
David Lowery’s evocative and sublime feature film, St.Nick, is a 70-minute tone poem that evokes Malick in its bittersweet chronicle of a runaway brother and sister and their symbiotic relationship. This feature length Seattle premiere is preceded by a program of all new shorts from cutting-edge local filmmakers, including Shawn Telford and Jason Reid. Directors David Lowery, Shawn Telford, and Calvin Reeder will be in attendance for a pre-screening Q&A.
Additional highlights include:
The “RAW Lounge” will be sponsored by Bulliet Bourbon and open for cocktails starting at 8:15pm. The evening begins with the first screening at 8:45pm with the feature film St. Nick at 9:45pm. The afterparty will be announced, following lights up. Tickets are just $15 and available at online at www.acttheatre.org.
