Brooklyn Independent Cinema Series at Barbes

FreeNYC Event Flyer

Date: Monday, January 5th
Time: 7:00pm
Location: Barbes (376 9th St., Park Slope)
Cost: Free

The Brooklyn Independent Cinema Series continues this evening with a new short and feature film. Shelf Life is a short documentary exploring one man's passion for collecting. Since his youth, Raymond Bandar, retired high school science teacher and long-time volunteer Field Associate for the California Academy of Sciences, has been collecting bones of all kinds. Today, Bandar has more than 7,000 cataloged specimens tightly stored in his home - mostly skulls of marine mammals that he's personally salvaged for both scientific data and personal pleasure. Tonight's feature, Woodpecker, is about fanatical birdwatchers descending on a small town in the Arkansas bayou in hopes of finding the celebrated Ivory Billed Woodpecker. Declared extinct in the 1940's, the bird has apparently been spotted by numerous experts. The ensuing chaos divides the small town between believers and non-believers, rabid environmentalist and opportunistic entrepreneurs. More details on both films can be found here.
