Maybe you shouldn’t. Cinema is a representational art anyway—what is on screen has only a causal, chemical parallel to corporeal reality, and film itself is nothing but miles of celluloid, or zeroes and ones. Its fascination for a century of viewers and scholars lies primarily in its powerfully subjective unmasking of human conscience, memory, and history...

...Screenings of the films took place at the Brattle Theatre and Kendall Square Cinema on Tuesday and Wednesday night.

When the lights first dimmed, the aptly-titled dance “Emergency” (choreographed by Jetta G. Martin ’05) hit the stage. Against a screen backdrop that urgently reflected a stark red light, maroon-sleeved dancers crowded the stage in movements that were alternately well-coordinate and disjointed. Whether or not the assumption and loss of uniformity was deliberate, the entire play proceeded and matched seamlessly the oblong and stacatta-driven notes of the soundtrack composition (written impressively by Patrick J.
