72 mins - United States 2022 Director: James Fotopoulos Starring: Kelsey Burns, Danusia Trevino and Mia Caress Phantoscope, Triskel’s quarterly experimental film event, is thrilled to present a recent feature by one of the most truly radical voices in contemporary film: James Fotopoulos. Praised by The Film Journal as “one of cinema's most unique voices, a filmmaker of uncompromising vision” his work has been hailed by The Village Voice as possessing “a formal purity and obsessive power that's all too rare these days” and its unsettling quality has frequently been compared to Lynch’s ERASERHEAD. FINAL OBSCURA is no exception. This silent film takes viewers on a mysterious journey through the transformations that a central female figure, Sonja, undergoes over a lifetime: the past, the present and future. It is distinguished by a uniquely painterly visual beauty that is sure to get under the skin.
