title: My Daily Routine

overview: It is all in the title. MY DAILY ROUTINE is a playful visual diary of filmmaker David Lowery's days, from waking in the morning to turning in at night, when his racing mind refuses to let him sleep without working over a new creative project or reading until the wee hours. It is also about the frustrations of creative work and the lure of distraction as a self-employed filmmaker and editor-for-hire in a plugged-in world. Narrated by the filmmaker and illustrated in hand-drawn sketches, it plays out like a mock slide-show (complete with the projector hum and click of changing images) by way of a tutorial. "I made MY DAILY ROUTINE at a point where I was just really frustrated with where I was and I wasn't even making things," explains Lowery. "There was a lot of red tape I was trying to cut through with other projects, but I really wanted to make something. This film is what I wound up making." - Sean Axmaker

Using still photographs, found objects and unsettling creations that briefly come to life via stop-motion animation (which evokes the work of the Brothers Quay and gives them an even more unreal presence), filmmaker David Lowery tells a phantasmagorical story, part fantastical mystery and part nightmare, as a primal memory. A CATALOG OF ANTICIPATIONS weaves imagination and experience into a haunting tale recalled in snapshots of recollection, a dark fantasy with a tactile texture that grounds it in the physical world and narration that frames it as a coming-of-age moment. - Sean Axmaker

Мария Скворцова

biography: Мария Савельевна Скворцова родилась в Турино, Тульская губерния, Российская империя. Приехала в Москву из деревни в десятилетнем возрасте, воспитывалась у старших братьев. Об актёрской профессии задумалась после того, как ей стали делать комплименты по поводу её голоса. Юная Мария хорошо пела, её брали даже в церковный хор. Единственное, что ее останавливало – это маленький рост. В 1930 году Мария Савельевна пошла с подругой за компанию на прослушивание к Серафиме Бирман – та набирала студию при Всесоюзном радиокомитете. Неожиданно, великая актриса предложила учиться у неё именно Скворцовой. Так решилась судьба будущей актрисы. В 1934 году вся студия выехала в Великие Луки поднимать местный театр. Во время войны Мария Скворцова оказалась в Ирбите, где артисты обслуживали госпитали и местный аэродром. Затем 2 года Мария Савельевна провела во фронтовой бригаде. А с 1945 её судьба связана с Областным ТЮЗом в Царицыно. Там она переиграла весь репертуар – от зайчиков до Ниловны в спектакле «Мать». Порой играла по 2 спектакля в день – утром для детей и вечером. После съёмок у Василия Шукшина она решила оставить театр и посвятить себя кинематографу. В последующие 20 лет Мария Скворцова снималась много и увлеченно, играла в драмах и комедиях, трагедиях и телесериалах, в «Ералашах» и «Фитилях». В 1993 году она появилась на экране в последний раз – в картине Бориса Бланка «Если бы знать...» Она категорически не приняла новое кино, новое поколение режиссёров, и решила уйти на покой. Ушла из жизни в Москве. Похоронена на 5-м участке Перловского кладбища рядом с мужем, актёром областного ТЮЗа Семёном Михайловичем Скворцовым.
