    Sedona AZ (February 13, 2014) – “Golden Hour,” a short narrative film about an older man’s search to recover his lost memories, will screen at the 20th anniversary Sedona International Film Festival. The short film has been paired with “Ä Field in England” and will have two screenings, the first taking place on Friday, Feb. 28 at 3:10 p.m. at Harkins Theatre 2, and again on Saturday, March 1 at 6:15 p.m. at Harkins Theatre 5. Ticket information and passes for the Sedona International Film Festival can be found online. Harkins Sedona Six Theatres are located at 2081 W. State Route 89A in West Sedona. The three filmmakers, Carrie Bush, Carrie Clark, Molly Katagiri will attend the screenings.

    20140213_GoldenHour_Poster_6Most recently, “Golden Hour” screened at the Flyway Film Festival in Pepin, Wis. and was awarded the audience choice award in the short narrative category during its sneak preview at the 2013 Minneapolis St. Paul International Film Festival.

    About The Short Film

    “Golden Hour” is a character-driven, short film. The story is told through visual metaphors and minimal dialogue, incorporating strong, colorful images. Troubled by memory loss and desperate to uncover his past, “Jim,” the film’s main character relies on written reminders to perform the simplest of daily tasks. His mind has become scrambled with flashbacks of his life, where he searches to connect fragmented memories of a mysterious lost love. As more of Jim’s recollections are revealed, it becomes clear that sometimes memories are better left forgotten.

    Lead actor, Charles Hubbell, who portrays Jim in“Golden Hour,” is actually far younger than his on-screen make up as “Old Jim” might suggest. An accomplished and versatile actor of the stage and screen, Hubbell has appeared in numerous films, theater productions and commercials.

    The Filmmakers

    A three-woman creative team, comprised of Carrie Bush, Carrie Clark and Molly Katagiri, is responsible for taking “Golden Hour” from page to screen. Through their partnership, the trio served as co-writers and co-directors of the film.

    Bush, Clark and Katagiri met nine years ago at college in Minnesota where the three women shared a passion for writing and directing. “Golden Hour” began as a writing experiment and after a year of co-writing; the filmmakers were excited to learn their narrative had been awarded a grant from The Jerome Foundation, and began adapting the project for film.

    Based on their experience in television and film, the women note that having the same collective vision for “Golden Hour” helped them form a united front for tight decision-making during the film’s eight day shoot. They credit an ability to stay organized and well-planned on set as important to maintaining a collaborative working environment and keeping the volunteer cast and crew motivated.

    Currently pursuing individual projects, the three filmmakers are also discussing opportunities to collaborate together in the future.

    Production

    The film shoot for “Golden Hour” was made possible thanks to generous financial donations raised on Indiegogo, as well as countless contributions of time and talent from more than 150 film volunteers and crew members — special thanks to producer Meighan McGuire, production designer Cheri Anderson, costume designer Deborah Fiscus, makeup effects artist Crist Ballas, visual effects by Tom Jacobson and Pixel Farm, composer Ken Brahmstedt, sound design by BWN and Geoff George, director of photography.

    The filmmakers have just started to submit “Golden Hour” to national and international film festivals. They are interested in learning about additional opportunities to screen at film festivals and other appropriate screening events across the country to bring the film to new audiences.

     THE MOMENT IS UPON US

    Dear Sedona,

    The moment is upon us. The time for a united effort to shift the focus back to our community is now.

    The ability to thrive in our community, our environment, our workforce, and the tourist industry, is entirely possible because we have all the resources needed for success.

    Still, we need a council that isn’t afraid to ask the hard questions, that makes decisions based on data and facts, and through discussion, rather than moving and voting in group unison as they so regularly do.

    This is my home. I have been a part of the Sedona community for 28 years. I witnessed the road debacle, the lack of planning, the city circumventing the local businesses ability to thrive, while making choices to expand the local government and be in direct competition with private industry.

    I am a unique candidate because unlike the incumbents, I don’t believe the government should expand in size, nor in operations, nor would I attempt to micromanage every aspect of our community.

    City government should stay in its lane and allow the competitive market of local private industry to prosper. And it should defend our community from corporate takeover and infiltration of our town.

    I do not agree that we should sign onto International Building Codes and regulations by signing Sedona up to the ICC. It is imperative that we remain a sweet, rural community.

    Where are the arts? Where is this organic thriving element that we allege to be animated by. Where is our culture? Where is our community?

    The discord between the decision making process and the desires of the community have never been more clear. It has been nearly a decade in the making.

    It is time for a new era of energy to take charge. An energy that is reflective in the ability to succeed rather than be trapped in out of date consciousness.

    It has been a great honor meeting with each of you. I hear your concerns over the insane and out of control spending and I echo them. A budget of $105,000,000 in a town of 9700 residents is completely unacceptable. A parking structure (that looks like a shoe box) originally slated to cost 11 million, now projected to cost 18 million, is incomprehensible. Especially, considering there is no intention of charging for parking.

    For those who are concerned that I lack the political experience within our established system- that is precisely what Sedona needs… Not another politician, but instead a person who understands people, who listens to the voices within the community, and who will act in service on their behalf with accountability, for the highest good of Sedona. What I am not, will prove to be an asset as I navigate the entrenched bureaucracy with a fresh perspective. Business as usual, is over.

    Creative solutions require new energy.

    Every decision that is made by our local government, must contemplate Sedona first.

    • Does this decision benefit the residents?
    • Does this decision benefit the local businesses?
    • Does this decision actually help the environment?
    • Will this decision sustain benefit in the future, or will it bring more problems?

    What we have now is a city government that expands to 165 employees for 9700 residents. Palm Desert has 53,000 residents and 119 city employees. Majority of our city department heads are not even in town. I find this problematic.

    Efforts towards championing in and courting new solutions for our medical needs are imperative. We are losing our doctors. We must encourage competition with other facilities rather than be held hostage by NAH, who clearly have their own set of dysfunctions.

    We must remember that so many move to Sedona for its beauty, hiking, and small town charm. Bigger, faster, and more concrete does not, in broad strokes, fit the ethos of Sedona.

    The old world must remain strong here in balance, as that is what visitors want to experience. Too many have noted that Sedona has lost its edge and charm.

    As Mayor I will preserve the rural charm of our community, and push back against the urbanization that is planned for Sedona.

    As mayor I will make it a priority to create opportunities to support our youth.  After school healthy, enriching programs should be created for our kids, and available to the Sedona workforce regardless of residency and regardless of school they belong to.

    As Mayor, I will create an agenda to deliberately embody the consciousness of our collective needs here, allowing private industry to meet the needs of our community rather than bigger government.

    I hope to have your vote on Aug 2nd. I am excited and have the energy to take on this leadership role with new eyes, community perspective, and the thoughtful consciousness that reflects all ages of the human spectrum.

    Thank you deeply for your consideration.

    Sincerely,

    Samaire Armstrong

    Armstrong vs. Jablow: The Main Event
    Ready to Rumble

    By Tommy Acosta
    In the Blue Corner stands Scott Jablow and in the Red Corner of the ring stands Samaire Armstrong, ready to rumble to the bitter end in their fight to become the next Sedona mayor. Jablow weighs in with 1,137 primary election votes (36.13%) under his belt, having wielded his advantage as sitting Sedona City Council vice-mayor to his favor. He brings his years of serving in that capacity into the fray and waged a solid fight in his campaign to make it to the run-off. Armstrong, however withstood a blistering smear campaign from the other opposing candidates and their supporters to make it to the final bout with 967 votes under her belt (30.73%), an amazing feat for a political newcomer. Unfortunately, for the other two candidates, Kurt Gehlbach and sitting mayor Sandy Moriarty, neither put up enough of a fight to make it to the championship bout. Read more→
