“This is Not a Story About…” is a classically-inspired modern radio program about the history of cinema written and hosted by filmmaker Ted Geoghegan. Each episode of the program begins as the story of someone or something in the world of film that cinephiles know very well, but transforms into an expertly-researched tale about a new topic: one that can be closely-related or worlds away from where its story began.

Already on Episode 5, TINASA has already not told the story of Bela Lugosi, Walt Disney and Friday the 13th..

Directed by Graham Reznick.

Featuring Ben Dickinson, Duncan Skiles, Christopher Paul Ford,
Heather Robb, Olivia Villanti and Fessenden.

“I CAN SEE YOU heralds a splendid new filmmaker with one
eye on genre mechanics, one eye on avant-garde conceits
and a third eye for transcendental weirdness.
Filmmaker Graham Reznick arrives with a bang.”
– The New York Times

“Without a doubt one of the most intriguing and
well-crafted low-budget horror films
in recent memory.”
– Fangoria

“Ultimately opting for Brakhage over butchery,
by turning vision itself into a mind-frying
source of anxiety.”
-Village Voice

Larry Fessenden with cinematographer Jack Fessenden shoot new short
for a forthcoming anthology of films shot during lockdown.
Mother Nature obliges.

Directed by Ilya Chaiken.

Starring Al Thompson and Kareem Savinon.

“Chaiken makes us feel for her characters… “Liberty Kid” is a poignant look
at what might be called 9/11′s collateral damage.”
– NEW YORK POST

“Her highly evolved feel for dialogue… goes a long way toward naturalizing
this rather high-concept undertaking, further helped by the seeming casualness
of Thompson and Savinon’s sharp thesping.”
– VARIETY

“Chaiken’s subtle narrative touch, along with the exceptionally strong performances
of leads Al Thompson and Kareem Savinon, gives this one a rare emotional pull.”
– NEW YORK MAGAZINE

“RIVETING… JAW-DROPPING… GLORIOUS.”
– LA WEEKLY

“Rob Kuhns’ marvelous doc about the making of Night of the Living Dead
looks at all the ways one low-budget, flesh-eating horror movie changed the world.”
– ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

CRITIC’S PICK! Mr. Romero, manifesting a self-effacing demeanor
and sensible humanity, is a most agreeable raconteur.”
– NY TIMES
