Blank City, a documentary about New York’s DIY filmmaking scene during the late 1970s through the mid-1980s, will be screened later this week at The Light Factory. Featuring interviews with many individuals who were there — including Blondie’s Debbie Harry, Steve Buscemi and Jim Jarmusch — the film looks at the “No Wave” movement when filmmakers, musicians and artists were often teaming up to create experimental, cutting-edge works.
Blank City will be shown at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 19, through Saturday, Jan. 21, at The Light Factory, 345 N. College St. Admission is $7 ($5 members). Go here for more information.
