As part of the NWFF’s 15th anniversary celebration they are screening films they helped bring to life, including Web Crowell’s feature film ‘Borrowing Time’. It screens Sunday the 26th at 9PM, preceded by another SEATer’s animated short, But Soft, by Britta Johnson:
From NWFF: “Before he received the first Stranger Genius award for film, animator Web Crowell started his first feature Borrowing Time with a little help and love from Northwest Film Forum. Made on a shoestring, this epic about Victorian aliens, Atomic insects and all around outdated technology is a distillation of 1940s serial adventure films, complete with atomic insects, planes on string and the very theft of history itself. Borrowing played around the country and won Best Director, Best Editor (Joe Shapiro who later went on to edit Police Beat and Zoo), Best Visual Effects and Best Set Design at the Syracuse B Movie Festival.
