Join Tom Tam in an evening about the joy of making movies.  This collection of reminiscences recalls the innocence of youth, and its exuberant outbursts, from a demonstration against tourist buses in Chinatown to some interesting experimentation of personal cinema. 

Movies shown:

Chi (5 min. silent)  Contemplation of patterns on a "go" board.  Something along the line of "History is a pattern of interpretations, the point is to change it..."

Tourist Buses, Go Home!  (11 min. silent) One of the first youth demonstrations in Chinatown that include demonstrators who have now become "famous".

Open Your Mouth and Move Your Lips (3 min. silent)  Experimental work on strips of self-portraits from a Times Square photo booth.
