Mid-Atlantic Regional
Showcase (MARS)
AFI and Montgomery College continue their
showcase of independent films by local and
regional filmmakers in May with Evan Guilfoyle
and Jonathan Schultz's Baltimorebased
WINTERLUDE. All MARS screenings are
preceded by casual filmmaker "Meet and
Greets" a half-hour before show time in AFI
Silver's café, followed by filmmaker Q&A
sessions. MARS screenings are $5.
WINTERLUDE
The story of an awkward young
filmmaker and his attempt to make
a movie based on a past relationship
using "real-life" couple Bob
and Marianne. As shooting begins,
Marianne discovers that being a
part of this project is more than
she bargained for: the filmmaker's
constant manipulation of their
screen "life" causes real tension
between the couple. Shot almost
entirely on location in Baltimore,
WINTERLUDE is a portrait of
young love and misguided cinematic
agendas that blurs the lines
between fantasy and reality.
