SUMMARY:Connectivity: Grand Theft Hamlet
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\nIn the SXSW\, Grierson\, and British Independent Film Award-winning Grand Theft Hamlet (2024)\, actors Sam Crane and Mark Oosterveen find themselves out of work when theaters shut down during the COVID-19 pandemic. Uncertain about their futures\, they turn to the virtual space of Grand Theft Auto Online\, embarking on the improbable project of casting and producing a live staging of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet within the game’s chaotic landscape. Directed by Sam Crane and Pinny Grylls\, the documentary is comprised entirely of in-game footage\, with all of the subjects depicted by their online avatars. The film chronicles the challenges of mounting theater in an unconventional space—from scouting locations and coordinating auditions with players around the globe to navigating rehearsal conflicts—while also capturing unexpected moments of connection during a period of global isolation. Both a celebration of the creative possibilities shared by theater\, video games\, and cinema\, and a poignant reflection on the artistic process\, Grand Theft Hamlet explores the enduring human need for connection through art. \nPlease note: This event will not feature a screening of the documentary. The format for this event will be a live discussion between filmmakers Sam Crane and Pinny Grylls\, and moderator Miguel Penabella (Carsey-Wolf Center\, UCSB). They will discuss the making of Grand Theft Hamlet\, and the process of casting\, producing\, rehearsing\, and staging a live production of Hamlet in Grand Theft Auto Online. Patrons may choose to watch the film in advance of this discussion via MUBI\, which offers a special sixty day student membership trial (and a seven day non-student membership trial)\, but advance viewing of the film will not be necessary to appreciate the discussion. \nThis event is presented in conjunction with the UCSB Library exhibition Infinite Variety: The Many Lives of Shakespeare’s Texts. \nImage Description: Image containing 4 people (2 standing on top of a limosine\, and 2 standing on the grass in front of the car)\, as well as one alien floating in the air

SUMMARY:Connectivity: Riceboy Sleeps
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\nRiceboy Sleeps (2022) is a tender and deeply personal work written\, produced\, edited\, and directed by Anthony Shim. The film traces the bond between a Korean single mother and her son as they build a life in the suburbs of Canada in the 1990s. Drawing in part on Shim’s own childhood\, the film follows So-young (Choi Seung-yoon) and the young Dong-hyun (Dohyun Noel Hwang\, Ethan Hwang)\, whose hopes for a better future are tempered by the racial and cultural challenges that confront them. As Dong-hyun grows into adolescence\, he becomes increasingly curious about his Korean heritage and in particular\, about his deceased father. So-young is focused on building her new life\, which now includes a relationship with a kind Korean-Canadian man (Anthony Shim) who is eager to take on the role of Dong-hyun’s surrogate father. Sudden devastating news prompts mother and son to return to South Korea for the first time since their initial departure\, in hopes of reconnecting to their roots and reconciling their tragic past. Anchored by delicate performances and graceful long takes\, Riceboy Sleeps is a moving portrait of diasporic working-class identity and the connections between parents and children. \nFilmmaker Anthony Shim will join moderator Miguel Penabella (Carsey-Wolf Center\, UCSB) for a post-screening discussion of Riceboy Sleeps. \nThis event is presented in conjunction with the the Carsey-Wolf Center and UCSB Reads program. The program’s 2026 selection is Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner. For more information and tickets to attend Zauner’s free public lecture at Campbell Hall on Thursday\, May 7 at 7:30 PM\, please visit this page. \nImage Description: Mother reading a bedtime story to her young son on a comfy couch
