Co-director Adrian Anderson will be in person to present POMP & CIRCUMSTANCE as well as a selection of short films. A Q&A will follow the film.

This freewheeling, episodic lo-fi comedy pays tribute to youthful ennui in a world where originality feels elusive. In Burlington, Vermont, three soon-to-be-graduates – Charlie, an unconventional romantic, Thomas, an obsessed poet, and Marie, a budding documentarian become entangled in an absurd plot involving their professor, running for mayor. Shot entirely on 16mm film, this debut serves as a loving but sarcastic homage to 60s underground cinema and 90s indies.

This film will be immediately followed by Brian De Palma’s Hi, Mom! for which Adrian Anderson will provide an introduction, discussing the influence of De Palma’s early radical comedies on his own work.
