Dear Friends of Casket Cinema,Casket Cinema kicks off it’s 18th season with a special night of filmic montage with scenes from eleven movies of San Francisco filmmaker Craig Baldwin. Baldwin is a juggernaut of experimental and found footage mayhem and is the whirling dervish behind one of the longest running experimental venues, the Bay Area’s Other Cinema. His work is in the realm of recombinatory forms of cinema, performance and installation.
