Film Guy
Adam Sekuler is program director of Northwest Film Forum, where he's brought the organization into a national leadership position in alternative film exhibition, curating individual films, director retrospectives and film festivals since 2006. He has initiated and organized major traveling programs for films that have screened across the country, and has devised a network among arts organizations for distributing otherwise undistributed films. His film work includes MERELY MOUTHPIECE, which he exhibited at several film festivals and adapted as an installation with unique sound design where the audio was broadcast over shortwave FM radio transmitters. His short film PATHE BALLET won a prize at the International Film Festival Rotterdam. Before arriving in Seattle, Adam was programmer for the nation's first and only dedicated non-fiction theatre, The Bell Auditorium. He is also co-founder of Search and Rescue, an ongoing effort to present and preserve discarded archives of 16mm films.
