Cinema, Nature, Ecology Film Series at UChicago (3/13) Cinema, Nature, Ecology Film Series at UChicago (3/13). This Friday, the University of Chicago's Film Center hosts a program featuring films by three Chicago filmmakers, Bill Brown, Thomas Comerford, and Deborah Stratman, who collectively investigate the varied relationships of urban spaces and rural landscapes to historical narratives of power and control. In works ranging from experimental shorts to documentaries, these screenings highlight a significant thread within Chicago's underground film community: the reinvestigation of familiar locations and landmarks. The screenings will be followed by a roundtable discussion with the artists. Friday, March 13, 2009, 6pm University of Chicago Film Studies Center Cobb Hall, 5811 S.
