Presented on consecutive Thursdays, these two features from Bay Area filmmaker Rob Nilsson are interrelated, although separated by almost three decades! Noted for his “Direct Action” approach to filmmaking, Nilsson received the Camera d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 1979 for his first feature Northern Lights (co-directed by John Hanson), and also won the Grand Jury Prize at the 1988 Sundance Film Festival for Heat and Sunlight. Other acclaimed films include On the Edge, Signal 7 and his 9@Night series. John Cassavetes proclaimed: “Nilsson’s films are beautiful, exciting, imaginative, unfamiliar—and outside of that, very good.”
