Oscar Contender ‘Perfectly A Strangeness’ Imagines Donkey Perspective
One of the most cinematic documentaries of the year comes in short form, with no dialogue. Alison McAlpine’s Oscar contender perfectly a strangeness, winner of more than a dozen awards at film festivals around the world, runs a spare 15 minutes. “I wanted to tell a tall tale without any dialogue,” McAlpine tells Deadline, “and play with, for me, the basic elements of cinema — shadow, light, sound, reflections.”

I will be pushing for a moratorium on the construction of data centers that are powering the unregulated sprint to develop & deploy AI.
The moratorium will give democracy a chance to catch up, and ensure that the benefits of technology work for all of us, not just the 1%.
