ROOFTOP FILMS PARK SLOPE SNEAK PREVIEW – FREE



In the next few days, we will begin to announce our selections for our outdoor screenings this summer, our 15th year of showing underground, and our friends over at Aunt Suzie's Restaurant on 5th Avenue in Park Slope invited us to give the neighborhood a early peek at some of the best short films that we will be screening when the weather warms up. We thought it was a great idea, so on Saturday, April 16th, we'll present an extraordinary collection of films from some of our signature programs.

We'll present David O'Reilly's magnificently twisted animated masterpiece, The External World; Chris Beckman's YouTube home movie mashup, oops; Kelly Sears' wonderful and weird Jupiter Elicius, which will be included in the Rooftop produced omnibus, Orbit; Tom Schroeder's sexy and surprising animated romance, Bike Race; David Lowery's SXSW short film winner, Pioneer, starring Bonnie Prince Will Oldham; the masterfully melancholic Swedish animated film, Tord and Tord; and not one but TWO films that we helped to fund through our Rooftop Filmmakers Fund--Emily Carmichael's Ledo and Ix Battle Epically and Moon Molson's powerful coming of age tale, Crazy Beats Strong Every Time.

The show is free and open to all, and it's a tremendous selection of films from all over the world, so join us in the auditorium of Middle School 51 on Saturday evening and get a first look at some of the amazing works that will be heading to the roof this summer.

When:
Saturday, April 16TH at 8:00 p.m.

Where:
In the auditorium at M.S. 51 Junior High School

350 5th Avenue, Park Slope, NY 11215

ROOFTOP FILMS PRESENTS: SHORT FILMS FOR KIDS! – FREE



Rooftop Films will be doing more than 45 outdoor events this summer, but we recognize that most of our events take place at night well after the sun sets, a schedule that doesn't always work well for kids and families. So on Saturday, April 16th, Rooftop Films will be presenting a program of short independent films for kids in the auditorium at M.S. 51 on Fifth Avenue in Park Slope. There is no charge for admission and the screening is open to all.

This program will be a Rooftop Films-style twist on films for kids, featuring family friendly, fun, smart, shorts from all over the world. There will be wild animation featuring knights, birds, cowboys, robots, monkeys, dragons, people made of sand and snow and all sorts of other creatures that are too crazy to describe. Not only that, there will also be live action films with ping pong balls flying all over the place, and more.

When:
Saturday, April 16TH at 4:00 p.m.

Where:
In the auditorium at M.S. 51 Junior High School

350 5th Avenue, Park Slope, NY 11215
Subway: Take the F, R or G to 4th Avenue and 9th Street or the F to 7th Avenue.
