Patience, After Sebald
Following up his documentaries on Radiohead and Joy Division, director Grant Gee turns his lens on author W.G. Sebald. An accolade rather than a biography of the German writer, Patience responds aesthetically to the author's body of work. In a journey through the landscape of the novel The Rings of Saturn, the film, like the book, pieces together an intimate collage of fiction, nonfiction, history and recollection.

Productions
Northwest Film Fund
The Northwest Film Fund supports documentary film projects in the Northwest at any stage of completion (including Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Alaska). The Film Forum will award $10,000 in cash, as well as a package of services to include legal consultation, 80 hours of post-production services with leading Seattle post houses, and “first look” deals with KCTS-Channel 9 and the Seattle International Film Festival. One filmmaker will be selected through an open invitation process beginning this summer. A panel of judges including industry experts will review applications in an initial round and make the final selection.
