The FIRE+WATER double bill will couple Hong Sangsoo's "IN WATER" (61 min) with Pedro Costa's "THE DAUGHTERS OF FIRE" (9 min). Both films, fresh of their North American premieres, show consummate artists taking some of the boldest risks of their careers. For Hong it's shooting a feature film in varying focal lengths, a decision that comes fully into focus in the film's indelible final image. For Costa, it's staging a three-screen mini-opera with three incredible performers filmed independently but somehow performing in unison. "THE DAUGHTERS OF FIRE" by Pedro Costa, 2023, 9 min Official Selection - Cannes, TIFF, NYFF Three young sisters are separated by the eruption of Fogo, but they sing: one day, we will know why we live and why we suffer. "IN WATER" by Hong Sangsoo, 2023, 61 min Official Selection - Berlinale, NYFF A trio of friends venture to the rocky shores of a large island to shoot a film together. The director, Seongmo (Shin Seokho), recently gave up acting and has decided to make a film with his own money. His former classmate, Sangguk (Ha Seongguk), will operate the camera and Namhee (Kim Seungyun) will act in it. The only problem: Seongmo hasn’t decided what to make. As he wanders in the rocks and wind, Seongmo searches for a story. What he finds is a young woman picking up trash. And that is all he needs. His most overtly experimental work to date, "In Water" reveals Hong at the height of his allusory powers. The story is simple: three friends set out to make a film, and then they do it. But with bold formal choices and his signature impulse toward the uncanny, Hong evokes infinite mysteries and hints at whole worlds lurking below the surface of everyday reality.

Donations will be accepted at the Freddie’s Place Vista location thru December 30th. Several times during the month, the Freddie’s Place “Best Care Anywhere Team” will also be out and about at “Stuff the Ambulance” events. The more donations received, the more shelter and rescue pets have a toy, treat, or warm blanket to celebrate Christmas. To further clarity, the Best Care Anywhere Team at Freddie’s Place indicated “No donation is too small for this event. It’s a great way for anyone in our community to help these forgotten animals in need with whatever sized donation they can afford.” Since both of Freddie’s organizations have such a large network of friends reaching across the nation, they are welcoming anyone outside of the San Diego area to join in on this great cause by donating directly to a shelter or rescue of their choice near their home. By simply taking a picture of the act of donating at the facility and sending that picture via email or Direct Message, the folks at Freddie’s Place will assure the person donating is recognized on all Freddie’s social media sites. People who provide donations will also be the recipient of a Freddie pin for their donation. Freddie asks everyone who cares about pets to be a part of this worthwhile initiative. Also happening at Freddie’s Place, in step with their motto “We’re Keeping the Ball Rolling.” the hospital is proud to introduce “The Freddie’s Place Ambulance & Transport Vehicle.” This state of the art wonder will likely be rolling into a neighborhood near you early in 2024. Freddie’s Place will be featuring their pet ambulance at area venues, providing on-the-spot medical assistance for pets with urgent health needs. Research shows that San Diego is one of the most pet friendly cities in the nation. As pets are given more and more access to events with their owners, the team at Freddie’s Place will be here to support San Diego pet families. Freddie’s Place also intends to offer mobile vaccine clinics and other health related services to areas that are veterinarian deserts or have lower income populations.
