Local filmmaker and photographer Nathan Kensinger is premiering his latest work--a project with longtime filmmaking partner Meghan O'Hara--in Red Hook on Saturday along with a retrospective of other films they have created. The screening is from 2PM-4:30PM on Saturday (8/11) and will take place at 499 Van Brunt Street, which is the beautiful Civil War era building across from the Red Hook Fairway where BWAC holds its art shows. The new film will be screened at 4PM. It's a short about Manhattan's Freedom Tunnel, which runs underneath Riverside Park, an active train tunnel that was formerly an underground homeless city. The other films include "Sold" (30 minutes, 2001), about the death of San Francisco's newspapers and "A Very Complicated Lock" (15 minutes, 2001), an exploration of locks and locksmiths.
