The lineup so far (not in order of screening)
Short: “Babel” by Peter Sparling. Peter Sparling is a former member of Martha Graham Dance Co. who returns in a solo that would only be possible on screen. Mirroring the voices in Arvo Part's score, he reveals four physical personalities. He transcends boundaries of gender and character while charting a man’s struggle to embody his own metamorphosis.
Short: “Trolley Dances” by Mark Freeman. Mark films 'Trolley Dances' a non-profit dance group who create public, site-specific dances in San Diego. Follow the various choreographers and dancers as they work out specific dances and performs them on an unsuspecting public! Great fun.
Short: “Horizon of Exile” by Isabel Rocamora. We follow a journey through dance of two women across timeless desert landscapes as they negotiate issues of self-image and belonging. It is punctuated by voice testimonies of Iraqi exiles. A visually stunning film that will stay with you for a long time.
Animation: “En Tus Brazos” by François-Xavier Goby, Edouard Jouret and Matthieu Landour. This is a beautiful French-made Spanish animation movie where nothing can stop a tango dancing couple ... not even fate. It abounds with creativity, sentiment and argentine tango.
Short Doc: “Phoenix Dance” by Karina Epperlein. After losing a leg to cancer, Homer Avila returns to the stage, performing with Andrea Flores, a dance choreographed by Alonzo King. The rehearsal process is fierce and tender. Solo or intertwined, Homer collaborates in his now “imperfect” body and his “one-leggedness” turns into transcendent beauty. Truly uplifting and deeply touching.

Lake County's own rock band Faded at Four will drop by Esoterica on KPFZ Friday night after their performance at Molly Brennan's.
Host Rhyschenda will be talking to the guys about their lives, their music and the journey they're taking as musicians. They'll also discuss music in general as well as the genres of hard rock and metal in the 21st century.
Faded At Four presents its listeners with strong beats, powerful lyrics and intense songs straight from the souls of this five-member crew. They believe that music is more than a mix of sounds, it is a compilation of life experiences and emotions that they have been given the gift and ability to share with their fans. Each member of the band brings their own talents and views and it is a mix of all of these that makes Faded At Four the powerhouse rock band that they are.
Esoterica plays inspirational brews of soothing exotic music, deep stillness and dynamic rhythms. More than flowing New Age, more than trance, more than driving drums, Esoterica features music you won't hear over the air everyday — the best in world music, traditional and contemporary, experimental, alternative, New Age and sacred music. Many shows are themed by genre, region or the calender.
Eight times a year, shows are themed for the changing seasons and the old Celtic holidays: Yule (Winter Solstice), Imbolc (Feb. 2), Ostara (Spring Equinox), Beltane (May Day), Summer Solstice, Lammas (Aug. 2), Mabon (Autumn Equinox) and Samhain (Halloween). Each show differs in format and may include music, poetry, prose readings & special guest interviews to celebrate the season.
For late night listeners, call-ins are always welcome at 707-263-3435.
Tune into Esoterica on KPFZ Friday nights 11 p.m. (rebroadcasts Thursdays 11 a.m.). Music of the Night plays in the wee hours on Saturday mornings 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. Visit www.rhyschenda.com/esoterica .
