"Director Rob Tregenza's "The Arc" highlights film festival"

"The highlight of Monday's program at the Chicago International Film Festival is "The Arc" screening at 9:30 pm at the Music Box Theatre. 3733 N. Southport Street. Directed by Rob Tregenza, who is perhaps the most formally innovative of the current generation of American Independent filmmakers, the film uses gradually increasing shot lengths, from a few frames to takes of several minutes, to relate the mythic tale of an arc welder (Jason Adams) on a spiritual quest. The film represents a committment to stylistic research that is extreamly rare in the context of today's glumly conservative independent cinema."
