today, and you never even see its inciting incident up close.
Winner of SXSW’s jury prize for narrative feature, writer-director Megan Park’s beautiful, brutal “The Fallout” might just become a definitive story of gun violence in the U.S. The images are of robotic women in repulsive rubber masks, babbling and droning, sometimes with an unseen assailant lurking barely in frame. Soon, James chases leads - complete with “Homeland”-style string board - in hopes of filling the hole in his own life. He’s as haunted as you can get outside of a Dickens story about Christmas, attending a support group for people dealing with loss and tattooed with a mysterious (read: tragic) date. He’s looking for answers any place he can find them, and find them he does in the form of sinister broadcast signal intrusions (natch). It’s a great peg for a SXSW midnighter, and director Jacob Gentry deliciously presents the story by Tim Woodall and Phil Drinkwater as a cyberpunk-lite noir. In the film, James (Harry Shum Jr., perma-glowering) is a video technician in late 1990s Chicago. The culprits have never been caught. Murky thriller “Broadcast Signal Intrusion” asks, “What if that, but also murder conspiracy?”

Remember those infamous 1987 Chicago pirate broadcasts of a person in a Max Headroom mask? Folks minding their own business watching TV found their signals briefly interrupted by disturbing footage of an inhuman visage, accompanied by distorted audio. "Best Summer Ever" was picked up for distribution after its SXSW premiere and is scheduled to start streaming on April 27. How about “Best Summer Ever II: A Great Spring”?
I hope others also will make more of these opportunities, and I also hope to find out what happens next in the “Best Summer Ever” world. That’s why it’s so important to have disabled actors representing themselves.” “Everyone deserves to see themselves represented, because it makes you feel like part of society. A voiceover throughout describes the action on screen, and the end pulls back to show that the crew is similarly diverse. “There’s still able-bodied people being cast in disabled roles, which is very frustrating to watch,” DeVido, who uses a wheelchair, said in an interview with CNET about Hollywood hiring practices. The cast includes people using wheelchairs and sign language and a whole spectrum of abilities. … We believe people do not need to be ‘fixed.’ Rather, we need to create a world where everyone has access to these opportunities.” The camp’s mission includes supporting “lifelong friendships and opportunities for people with and without disabilities and other marginalized communities. The film was made by Zeno Mountain Farm, which is both a camp and a film studio.
“Best Summer Ever” also features something not seen enough yet on screens: people with disabilities whose storylines do not focus on disabilities.
