Lost Rivers, 2013, by Caroline Bâcle
The SF Urban Film Fest (SFUFF) is a unique film festival that focuses on cities and civic engagement inspired by great storytelling. On Saturday, November 7, the Exploratorium's Cinema Arts Curators and SFUFF Founder and Executive Producer Fay Darmawi present inspiring documentaries and presentations on reclaiming urban rivers and abandoned public spaces. Hear San Francisco Public Utilities Commission Project Manager Raphael Garcia discuss the Upper Yosemite Creek Daylighting project currently underway in San Francisco’s McLaren Park, and meet designers Emily Schlickman and Kristina Loring of Ghost Arroyos, a project revealing San Francisco’s forgotten waterways through simple, yet powerful interventions. Films include Caroline Bâcle’s acclaimed, full-length documentary Lost Rivers, as well as two short meditations on urban renewal and decay.
