SUMMARY:Nika AutorNewsreel #63\, 2017
DESCRIPTION:Nika Autor\nNewsreel #63\, 2017\n(Slovenia\, 37mins\, English subtitles) \n\n\n\nIn our upstairs space\, we will present Nika Autor’s haunting film Newsreel #63 over three days. Shown as part of the Slovenia presentation at the Venice Bienniale 2017\, the starting point for the film was a shred of video taken on the once famous Belgrade to Ljubljana rail-line by two refugees travelling between the train’s wheels. \n\n\n\nNewsreel #63 is part of a wider project by Nika Autor to revive the newsreel film form. Often working with collaborators\, her Newsreels combine voice-over with quotations from films\, archival footage and footage of current events. Newsreel #63 centres on trains as symbols of hope and despair\, and presents a collage of a succession of undercarriages – from Buster Keaton to today’s stowaway migrants – along with footage of the old Belgrade-Ljubljana line. \n\n\n\nScreening times:\nFriday 13 July\, 12pm-5pm\nSaturday 14 July\, 12pm-5pm\nSunday 15 July\, 12pm-3pm\nFree\, screened in a loop \nPart of Surrender Your Tickets: screenings over three days\, 13-15 July 2018

SUMMARY:TALKDr rebecca HarrisonTravellers in Two Lands: Revisiting Britain's Railway Cinemas
DESCRIPTION:  \nFilm Historian Dr Rebecca Harrison (University of Glasgow) will talk about Britain’s cinema trains: operating between 1924 and 1989\, they not only transported passengers to various destination around the country\, such as London and Edinburgh\, but also far-off locations represented on mobile screens. Now forgotten and overlooked as a footnote in railway history\, Dr Harrison will discuss the everyday life of the trains\, including their evolving designs\, the films shown inside them\, their links to Empire and eventual decline. \nDr Harrison is the author of a monograph From Steam to Screen: Cinema\, the Railways and Modernity (I B Tauris)\, which will be published in November 2017. \nTickets cost £2

SUMMARY:16mm screeningJames Benning\, RR\, 2007Stan Brakhage\, The Wonder Ring\, 1955
DESCRIPTION:James Benning\, RR\, 2007. Courtesy of Arsenal – Institute for Film and Video Art\, Berlin\nStan Brakhage\, The Wonder Ring\, 1955 (5.30mins\, no sound) \nJames Benning\, RR\, 2007 (1h 16mins) \nThis is a rare opportunity to see the work of California-based filmmaker James Benning\, acclaimed for his 16mm durational films. Benning’s work is rarely presented in the UK and RR – the last film he shot on 16mm – will be shown on its original format. RR bears all the hallmarks of his approach to filmmaking: static shots\, long takes and a profound understanding of the nature of duration and time. How these factors are experienced in landscape and in film are here explored through a compelling medium: the American railroad\, and in particular the passage of the freight train through American continent. \nThis film is the product of two years of filming by Benning and for which he assembled footage of trains throughout the U.S.\, depicting their movement through the frame of a static camera in a variety of surroundings. In one of the longest takes\, a freight train takes a good eleven minutes until it leaves the picture. From start to finish\, we see the often-vast freight trains in their entirety\, passing from idyllic and pristine landscapes to more populated and disfigured spaces\, and finally through to the ends of the continent. \nAlongside RR\, we are delighted to screen an early short film made by Stan Brakhage in 1955 when he was just 22 years old\, and commissioned by artist Joseph Cornell to document New York City’s Third Avenue elevated train before it was destroyed. \n  \nBoth films will be screened in our upstairs space on 16mm format \nYou can book a seat by emailing us directly at info@campleline.org.uk\, or via Ticket Source \nThe films will be followed by a response from D&G-based filmmaker and sound artist Mark Lyken. Mark will talk about RR in the context of James Benning’s film work\, and about how it relates to his own practice\n\nIn association with Robert Burns Centre Film Theatre\, and with thanks to Arsenal in Berlin and Light Cone in Paris for supplying the prints
