Constantine Giannaris, UK 1991, 58'
Shot in striking monochrome, Giannaris distills the vocabulary of the American road movie into a sensual mood piece about a bisexual poet, two hitchhikers, and the American landscape.

Solarflares Burn for You
Arthur Johns, UK 1973, 9’
A personal essay on colour effects, set to a hypnotic soundtrack by Soft Machine's Robert Wyatt. We are taken out of the city and onto a colour-saturated journey of tangerine skies, scarlet landscapes and acid yellow roads.

These films are programmed to reflect themes in the  Time Zones exhibition.

Presented in association with The Kent Institute of Art & Design, MA Artists' Film, Video & Photography and with the support of the Hellenic Foundation for Culture as part of Greece in Britain, a nationwide series of events illustrating the wealth and diversity of contemporary Greek culture.
