Last night I saw a few film shorts from Kearny St. Workshop’s Annual Festival: Apature 9. It’s not misspelled, it’s for Asian, Pacific Americans (APA). PIctured are the actors and filmmakers of the dozen or so shorts we saw, along with the featured artist, emmy-award winning Emiko Amori. She’s done documentaries on Tattooing and her family’s internment history, and currently is premiering in Mill Valley, the Technology of Orgasm. Needless to say it looks great.

If you can, catch the last two days of the festival tonight and tomorrow. Tonight is stand-up at Make-Out Room. Tomorrow, Comic Zine Expo at Kearny St. location, 180 Capp St. , 12-6pm. Sat. night is the festival close party, at their Capp st. location. I was really entertained & impressed with the quality of works at the film shorts- so it all looks good.
