Antero Alli's fifth feature dv-film project (video & film), "The Greater Circulation", is based on the text and subtext of Czech poet Rainer Maria Rilke's epic lyrical lament, "REQUIEM FOR A FRIEND". Parallel timelines collide when a small theatre troupe in present day Berkeley prepares to stage Rilke's lyrical lament "Requiem For a Friend", while simultaneously the poet is writing his "Requiem" a hundred years earlier in a Paris hotel room. Past and future intersect when images of the staged performance infiltrate the fevered dreams of the transported poet.
Grip and gaffer (indoor Super8 film shoots), boom
operators, DV camera-ops (one night only),
production assistants, catering, set construction
(see stage set).
Paid positions: camera-ops,
construction foreman, catering. Pay determined by
experience, skill and whether
or not you have your own gear. Shooting schedule TBA
for May.
