LOW TIDE (advised 16)
Director: Jon Sanders
Starring: Anna Mottram, Charlotte Palmer, Richard Vanstone, Jan Chappell, Bob
Goody
UK 2007 / 86 mins / Digibeta
Low Tide explores notions of life and death through the final days of a
terminally ill woman in a starkly beautiful and hauntingly amusing manner. With
an entirely improvised script and a pared-down production system, the film
pieces together single takes (shot in natural light) to counter the glossed
perfection of Hollywood. Shot on a minimal budget, Jon Sanders' poignant film is
a reminder that cinema has further uses than lining pockets, and will stay with
you long after you left the cinema. At this premiere, Sanders joins writer
James Leahy to discuss the film as well as the ailing future of independent
cinema in the hands of the industry's conglomerate distribution systems.

The Belgrade Manifesto: "Although there are an ever increasing number of
conferences about the changes that will inevitably come with "new digital
cinema", what is being ignored is the long term stagnation of cinematic language
and form and the consequent lack of innovation and depth which are essential to
keep cinema alive. We are at a crossroads where low cost production and new ways
of distribution have real potential for the rejuvenation of cinema. We believe
that it is time to take responsibility our own future and establish a committed
interactive community that can work together to find viable ways to make and
show films and build audiences that will want to see them." Jon Sanders
