Description

The Two Sights ALL AGES The Two Sights ALL AGES The Two Sights by Joshua Bonnetta, preceded by Salt Institute short, I Keep My Eyes Open The first solo feature from Joshua Bonnetta (co-director, El Mar La Mar), The Two Sights (An Dà Shealladh) explores the disappearing tradition of second sight in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. As we listen to locals' accounts of haunting experiences—phantom horses, ghost voices and other supernatural phenomena—Bonnetta connects their testimonies with striking 16mm images and a carefully-curated sonic montage of the physical and aural environment of these enchanted islands. The Two Sights is an ethnographic marvel of non-fiction filmmaking that thrills the eyes and ears and invites us into the extra-sensory beyond. the film will be preceded by Salt Institue short documentary I Keep My Eyes Open which explores the Maine woods through the eyes of Bigfoot Investigators.
