It's
getting chilly and wet out there, and many of us
would like nothing better than to escape to someplace
warm and beautiful, like, say, Italy. If you can
afford it, good for you, but for the rest of us
working class plebians, the rich offerings of the
New Italian Cinema festival will do just as nicely.
Focusing on the newest directors and cutting edge
topics, this collection of films shows off Italy's
European passion set against its gorgeous Mediterranean
scenery. Among the best is Chemical Hunger,
a fast-paced story about an urban love triangle
with a nice hip-hop soundtrack. All the directors
should be in town to exhibit their creations, so
you film buffs better not miss out! Dates:

at Studio Z involves artwork from an astounding

yet! The Latin-infused live band Orixa is set to
play along with popular house DJs Russel Vargas,
Linden C and many others. This rich cultural extravaganza
is sponsored by SF Weekly, Gen Art, and several
others too numerous to name, but I'm hoping that
Blowfish Sushi's involvement means yummy snacks
