Wholphin #7 DVD Release Party @ The Silent Movie Theater


Join us for Wholphin's return to the The Cinefamily, to celebrate the release of both Wholphin No. 7 and the Best of Wholphin Volume 1, two of the latest DVDs of shorts, docs and uncategorizable films curated by the folks at McSweeney's. Among the picks to be screened are: the early Gus Van Sant short The Discipline Of D.E., based on a William S. Burroughs short story; the documentary Nutkin's Last Stand, about England's fight to save her beloved red squirrels from invasion by the American grey squirrels; and, the gorgeous in-house Wholpin production Look At The Sun, an incredibly close look at the sun in its most gorgeous and inactive state. Also featured are Academy Award-winning shorts, UFOs, giant squid, and a live, interactive scientific experiment in retroactive causality, in which the audience, just by watching, will help to determine the role of consciousness in the establishment of a physical reality.
