To Open Eyes
The genesis of To Open Eyes: A Film on Josef Albers developed from Arnold Bittleman's appreciation for Albers while Bittleman was a student at Yale University in the 1960s. Wanting to preserve Albers’s teaching method—learning by doing—Bittleman set out with filmmaker and editor Carl Howard to make a visual record of Albers teaching students how to see and use color as a visual grammar. The film includes archival footage of Josef Albers at home in conversation with Bittleman, as well as footage from Black Mountain College and Yale University.

Volvoreta
Volvoreta is a 3-year-old racing filly trained by an Argentine installed in France for more than 30 years. Carlos Lerner, born in Tucumán and raised in Monigotes, Santa Fé province, made a place for himself in the elite French turf with determination and work. When a Spanish owner entrusts him with Volvoreta to run in France, Carlos still does not know that the filly is an unusual competitor. He makes his debut winning, and after three races he is still undefeated. This opens the door for him to run the Prix de Diane, a prestigious Group 1 that would allow Carlos, in the event of victory, to establish himself as a first-line coach. The film closely follows the filly's training during the two weeks leading up to the big race and the stress of those tending to her.
