Looking for something to watch? The New/Next home viewing archive has direct links to free viewing of dozens of shorts we’ve programmed on YouTube, Vimeo, NoBudge, and other platforms. Take, for instance, our Doc Shorts program for 2024, for which all titles are now online! tinyurl.com/cm6rwkd9

I've just launched The New/Next Film Fest Viewing Archive: a public document listing every film I've screened in the history of @newnextfilmfest.bsky.social and where, when applicable, you can view each film from home (streaming, VOD, and physical media). Dig in, share, enjoy! tinyurl.com/cm6rwkd9

If you missed this excellent doc when it screened at @newnextfilmfest.bsky.social come to Red Emma's and watch it on Black Friday; panel afterward with me @jessdouglas.bsky.social and WTO/99's editor @prophetkotto.bsky.social

Save the dates: New/Next 2.0 is coming.

For fellow watchers of The Curse: it’s probably not entirely irrelevant that IRL Benny Safdie’s great-uncle Moshe Safdie designed (and resided within) Montreal’s iconic brutalist apartment building Habitat 67

Unnamed Parisian record shop specializing in diasporic imports, featured in a chase scene within Juliet Berto and Jean-Henri Roger’s Pigalle-set NEIGE (1981). Among the records visible is the 1976 compas LP REGRET, the debut album by Haitian group Chanel 10.
