Join us for a 7 PM screening of a short documentary casa de pájaro by Amadís Adrián García Orozco from Abierto Mexicano de Diseño, followed by a short film ECONOMIA SOCIAL by Gonzalo Escobar Mora. 

At 8 PM join our Dinnertime Phone Brigade! Politicians respond to phone calls over emails, social media rants, and even letters, but where to begin? Over dinner we practice together and start ringing the phones of public offices with our concerns and interests. 

Amadís Adrián García Orozco (León, MX, 1990) works with filmmaking in general and stop-motion in particular as a way to animate the material life that surrounds us and guides our relationship with spaces and things, as well as with memory and others. "Nothing goes to waste" is one of the ruling concepts of the Abierto Mexicano de Diseño 2019, which briefly and powerfully encapsulates the creative spirit of making and sensibility of popular architecture. 

Gonzalo Escobar Mora (Bogotá, 1982) is an artist who wants to be a filmmaker, and a filmmaker who wants to be an artist. He loves this confusion. Gonzalo received a Master of Arts in Film Directing from Bela Tarr's film factory program under the mentorship of Hungarian director Béla Tarr, and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. His work questions formal definitions and narrative structures, exploring intersections between the personal, the lyrical, and the political.

Organized by Caroline Ng and Wisdom Baty.
