Join The Bakery Atlanta at The Supermarket for a Unicorn Gardens Cinema Film Screening called, “Way of Life.”

The vibe is fairly light-hearted, doc-style short films about grandfathers, clowns, mutual aid and acts of resistance. ATL filmmakers will be in attendance for a Q&A. Also in attendance will be several local mutual aid orgs!

Doors at 7p. Hope to see you there!

Curated by Lev Omelchenko

Line Up - 46 minutes runtime

“I Signed the Petition” by Mahdi Fleifel. [10:31]

Immediately after a Palestinian man signs an online petition, he is thrown into a panic-inducing spiral of self-doubt. Over the course of a conversation with an understanding friend, he analyses, deconstructs and interprets the meaning of his choice to publicly support the cultural boycott of Israel.

“Proximity Study (Sight Lines)” by @elizabeth.m.webb (ATL) [5:40]

Proximity Study (Sight Lines) is an attempt to measure closeness despite temporal distance. Webb’s grandfather (whom she never met) worked as a longshoreman on the Brooklyn waterfront. Webb filmed the docks on 16mm film and rowed in the channel between camera and subject. The physical film print trailed behind, reaching to bridge the distance.

“Buster’s Onion” by @giovannideltortorici (ATL) [9:59]

As a grandfather’s mysterious surgery draws near, he and his wife contend with what their 50 years of marriage have come to.

“Kingdom of Humor and Fun” by @fraserjones.tv (ATL) [7:16]

The world’s last great clown teacher seeks pleasure before the end.

“Olive” by @lev.omel (ATL) [12:38]

“Olive” is a short documentary that follows @zippyshortcake on her daily routine of salvaging, repackaging and redistributing food, and occasional other types of “waste”, across Atlanta, GA.
