The theme of BleedFest's March 6th event is FantAsian: Fantasy and musicals by female Asian filmmakers, and they're showing Anna Biller's short films Three Examples of Myself as a Queen, which involve really strong fantasy elements.
Biller is best known for her awesome spoof of the sexual revoultion called Viva, but Three Examples of Myself as a Queen showcases her strongest attribute- her art direction skills, which are beyond compare. Watching an Anna Biller film is like falling into another world. A Visit from the Incubus and Fairy Ballet are by far some of the most engrossing shorts of the past decade of independent women's films. This chance to see Biller, in person, with her works, is a must for any fan of the gorgeous or the fantastical in movies.
Bleedfest (www.bleedfest.com) is also holding a book drive for Bridge to Asia and a fundraiser...

*Full disclosure: a screener of this film was provided by director Carly Lyn.
Director/writer: Carly Lyn.
A foundling is defined as an abandoned child, from multiple sources and this first feature film from Carly Lyn premiered in 2010, with another showing at Bleedfest earlier this month. Lyn's film blends the western and sci-fi genres for mixed results. The message of family unity is noble, but the execution is sometimes frustrating. Sisters, Virginia (Cindy Chiu) and Mattie (Nora Jesse) find a common bond in the deserts of California, along with snub-nosed child. Slow pacing is the end result.
To flesh out the plot a little: Virginia travels by horseback to reunite with her "long lost sister" (Foundling). A harlot, Mattie is happy to be found, but also concerned with a crash landed alien. A bite here, an extraterrestrial visiting there and soon Mattie is succumbing to a strange disease. Enter...

Bay Area underground auteur Waylon Bacon will be debuting his latest magnum opus, Help Wanted, at the 19th annual Berkeley Video and Film Festival. The 20-minute short film will be preceded by three of Bacon’s earlier, shorter works: Poster Boy, Bob and My Worst Nightmare.
Plus: Advance buzz on Help Wanted has been so intense that a second screening has been added for Monday, Sept. 27 at 9:00 p.m. at the Revolution Cafe in San Francisco’s Mission District. If you’re in the Bay Area, make it to one screening or go to both!
Help Wanted follows a young man on an interview for what appears to be the worst job of all time. While the details of that job are being kept secret, let’s just say it involves a warehouse and dead bodies.
