The same force of time and the same cycle of life animates both man and nature, Frammartino seems to say. The parallels he draws reminds me of Thai director Apichatpong Weerasethakul, another director who mysterious and beautifully evokes the interconnectedness of all realms of life. (The “tree men” in Alberi also have a similar, slightly comedic force as the “ape men” of Uncle Boonmee.) [...]

This particular screening was only for videos by New School students. I’m not sure of other specific amateur screenings in New York, but I’d imagine there are lots of them. I would look at small community art spaces or just search for film festival submissions.
Good luck.

Don’t expect much in the way of narrative resolution, but watch how Ceylan’s expands the implications of themes in each scene. [...]

In this film, Tarr toys with apocalyptic imagery and tones to ask how we cling to survival when all hope is lost. [...]
