SUMMARY:LAKE COUNTY FILM FESTIVAL OPENING NIGHT FEATURE - ROOM SIX
DESCRIPTION:OPENING NIGHT FEATURE FILM \nOpening night (Halloween) will be the Horror/Thriller film “Room Six”\, made in Lake County. Filmmakers will be in attendance and will have a post screening Q & A. We will also be screening a collection of short films from filmmakers from Lake County preceding “Room Six”. This film is likely not suitable for children. \nRoom Six is the story of Maxx\, a college student\, who is working the night shift at a vacant\, rundown motel before the late-night arrival of two brothers. After a few suspicious incidents\, Maxx’s curiosity (or paranoia) gets the best of her\, and she decides to investigate the situation. Maxx quickly finds herself in danger as she uncovers what lies hidden in the brothers’ room. \nThe festival will be showing about two dozen features and over 80 short films. Gorton Center is thrilled to be partnering up as one of the host venues. The full slate of films\, along with the schedule\, will be available in early September. \nThe 14th Lake County Film Festival will be held from October 31-November 3 & November 8-11. \nScreenings will also be held at The College Of Lake County in Grayslake\, IL\,

SUMMARY:LAKE COUNTY FILM FESTIVAL - Selected Shorts Program
DESCRIPTION:Come check out an exciting program of 10 short films from the Lake County Film Festival\, specifically selected for Gorton Center!\nThe Selected Shorts Program at Gorton Includes: \nHandle With Care (d. Michael Glover Smith)\n8 Minutes / USA\nA woman and a man go on a date\, both for the first time in years. Each faces the dilemma of how open and honest they should be.\nNight Session (d. Ballard C. Boyd)\n11 Minutes / USA\nWhen a burglar unexpectedly runs into a homeowner during a theft\, the robbery morphs into a makeshift therapy session\, with the burglar helping the homeowner process his impending divorce – all while the homeowner helps to rob his own apartment.\nThe Brown Dog (d. Nadia Hallgren & Jamie-James Medina)\n14 Minutes / USA\nNight after night\, a watchman clocks into his lonely booth and spends hours composing endless security logs to stay awake\, as he slowly descends into darkness.\nQuem Salva (d. Laure Devin\, Maxime Bourstin\, Nathan Medam\, Charles Hechinger & Titouan Jaouen)\n7 Minutes / France\nSidnei is a young recruit of the fire department fighting forest fires in the Amazon. During his first mission\, he will be separated from the group and will have to undertake a perilous mission\, guided by his mentor\, Joao. Sidnei will be confronted with a choice: follow the orders of the hierarchy or save a thousand-year-old tree at the risk of his life.\nFitting Descriptions (d. Tiffany Bedwell & John Mossman)\n10 Minutes / USA\nDina\, an aging CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) stage actor haunted by a past humiliation\, tries to jump-start her failing on-camera career by rebranding. Outside a Chicago coffeehouse Dina begrudgingly solicits passersby for first impressions\, then weathers the resulting IRL likes\, comments\, and plain indifference of strangers and her industry alike. But when her past and present collide\, Dina’s authorial CODA “voice” awakens.\nUnibrow (d. Nedda Sarshar)\n14 Minutes / Canada\nLeyla is an Irani-Canadian girl with a complicated relationship with the Irani part– she does not want to speak Farsi at home to her mother and grandmother\, she does not have any Irani friends\, and she HATES her unibrow. In an attempt to get rid of her unibrow\, Leyla accidentally makes things worst and now has to go to school with ruined brows! Fortunately the new girl at school\, Sahar\, offers to help “fix” her brows and invites Leyla to her home. Leyla cannot help but be intrigued by Sahar’s connection to Iran and her community\, and feels her own world begin to grow bigger.\n[INSERT SHORT FILM TITLE] (d. Kory Orban)\n12 Minutes / USA\nIn the mind of every filmmaker\, there are two wolves locked in an epic\, eternal\, and fierce battle for control and influence. The combatants? The analytical left brain and the whimsical right. [INSERT SHORT FILM TITLE] personifies these cerebral hemispheres in the monumentally (or at least marginally) comedic performances of Chrissy Mozylisky and Matthew MacCaull\, evoking the cinematic manifestation of that cerebrum arm wrestle in the form of a meta-troll of the short film genre.\nDon’t Forget (d. Jeremy Stuart Thompson)\n7 Minutes / Canada\nA story about a fella and his wife about to drive to an event. Well\, Just as long as he remembered everything of course.\nShoes (d. Mostafa Keshvari)\n5 Minutes / Canada\nThe tale of an Iranian girl is told through the eyes of her shoes\, capturing her journey from the first steps to the very last.\nThe Venus Gambit (d. Thomas Nicol)\n7 Minutes / USA\nA casual date turns into a match of minds and hearts on the chessboard. \nThe festival will be showing about two dozen features and over 80 short films. Gorton Center is thrilled to be partnering up as one of the host venues. The full slate of films\, along with the schedule\, can be found here. \nThe 14th Lake County Film Festival will be held from October 31-November 3 & November 8-11. \nScreenings will also be held at The College Of Lake County in Grayslake\, IL\,
