Join director Douglas Rosenberg for a screening of his 60-minute black and white film "The Sea" at 7 p.m. in the Community Foundation Theater. The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the filmmaker, and it is free and open to the public.
"The Sea" was filmed completely on location at the edge of the Baltic Sea, and it was shot in the footsteps of Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman in a landscape that inspired the project. The island of Fårö is an extraordinary place that was Bergman’s home and the location for some of his most important and compelling films.
Rosenberg's film explores the nature of aging and the relationship of men to the landscape, to solitude and to community, with a cast of largely untrained performers who come from the areas surrounding the island of Fårö. The film explores male intimacy, camaraderie and aging via men in their third age. The cast includes American choreographer and dancer David Dorfman.
