First Weekend Club
The DVD Club for Canadian Film

First Weekend Club is a non-profit organization that promotes Canadian film. Recently, it unveiled a new and exciting initiative: The DVD Club. The way that the DVD Club works is like a book club, except for movies.

Each month, a new Canadian DVD title is chosen and members can either rent or buy the DVD, then log on the forum at: http://www.firstweekendclub.ca/dvd-club/ and post their thoughts, musings and questions and discuss the film with other cinephiles – all for free. Each month we also invite special guests such as filmmakers & talent to participate in Q&As with members. Past films included Snow Cake, Eve & the Fire Horse, It’s All Gone Pete Tong, Eastern Promises, Up the Yangtze, The Snow Walker, and others. This month, we’ve turned the heat up – way up. Our pick for DVD of the Month is “Young People F**king” and we will have director Martin Gero answering questions, as well as one of the stars of the film, Sonya Bennett.

Next month’s title hasn’t been announced yet, but it will be Paul Gross’ box office hit “Passchendaele”.

The DVD Club isn’t just for Canadians either. It’s for anyone who enjoys Canadian film. While not all Canadian films are easily accessible in movie theatres, the DVD Club allows anyone anywhere to recreate the social dynamic of a movie theatre from the comfort of their own home.

Dir. Kristian Fraga
Severe Clear
Saturday July 4th. 7pm
NewFilmmakers NY

Severe Clear is based on the memoir by First Lieutenant Mike Scotti as well as video footage shot by him and other members of 1st Battalion, 4th Marines on the outset of the 2003 invasion of Iraqi. Through their cameras we see the raw sounds of war, capturing the harrowing three hundred mile charge to Baghdad through hostile enemy territory. The footage used to create Severe Clear was never shot for the purpose of making a movie. In this digital age of embedded reporters, the film truly strips the barriers between audience and soldier, personalizing the fear, moral conundrum and adrenaline rush of life on the battlefield. Severe Clear offers an unflinching look at the uncertainty, disorder and chaos of war from the remarkable perspective of one Marine.

Tickets: $6. For more information please visit http://severeclearthemovie.com/wordpress/
