Booking & Repertoire

The Flushing Remonstrance will work with you to present a screening and performance that best fits with your programming, your space, and your audience.

We are always in the process of working up new films for performance, including both full-length films and short films for assembling into a custom program. Let us know what kind of screening you’d like for us to do at your venue, including if you have specific films or genres that you’d like for us to try to work up for performance, or if you are interested in specific material from our existing repertoire of over 50 films.

We can supply our own equipment if your venue does not have a projector/screen and/or a PA system.

Aelita, Queen of Mars - Yakov Protazanov

The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari – Robert Wiene

Themed programs:

We have a number of themed programs planned for future performance; we can also work with you to assemble programs/content of your choosing. Themed programs currently in development include:

· Experimental Short Films (various eras and directors)

We assemble a custom short films program for each show. This program can be themed based upon appeal for a particular audience or screening location, program duration, subject matter, or to complement other aspects of the event or venue.

· Strange Animation – program of experimental/unusual animated shorts

· New York City – program of experimental and historical short films featuring NYC as a subject/location
