Subterranean Light is a collection of short films by Portland filmmaker Vu Pham that expresses the humanity of a void in discernable meaning, the beauty of truth in the grotesque, and the equilibrium of ambiguity. Through semi-autobiographical inspirations, broken memories, day-dreams, and hallucinations, Pham conjures bold and nuanced tales of highway chasing, dispossessed drifters, Vietnamese refugees lost in the wake of exodus, low-life drug deals in the theater of the absurd, an underworld that quickly becomes a chaotic netherworld, and the existential impasse of a working-class man.

On this Saturday, we’d like to invite prospective PNCA undergrad students to join us to experience how PNCA will empower you to reimagine what art and design can do in the world.
