The second issue of Adrian Martin and Girish Shambu's film journal Lola has arrived—or has begun to, rather—with a new staggered distribution of content. Shambu dishes some exposition on the changes and details the content at his blog, which include contributions from Nicole Brenez and Chantal Akerman. From horror to hockey? In one of the stranger director + project announcements of late, the underrated Rob Zombie is going to be making Broad Street Bullies, a sports movie about the notoriously tough 1970s Philadelphia Flyers. A hometown plug from me for the Pacific Cinémathèque here in Vancouver, which is currently raising money by selling limited edition postcards featuring designs from the great Steve Chow, who was featured in Adrian Curry's Movie Poster of the Week column last fall. Donate $10 and you'll receive 6 of Chow's program guide designs. Along with the gorgeous posters detailed in Curry's article, Chow is also...

To follow up on the ongoing presentation of Films by Peter Tscherkassy, Mubi and Index are teaming up once again to open up another showcase of experimental cinema, this one focusing on Lisl Ponger (site). "A visual artist, photographer, and filmmaker, Ponger is equally at home at Documenta (she participated in 2002) and at film festivals," wrote Brigitte Huck for Artforum in 2007. "Acting (often in the same work) as director, set designer, performer, and archivist, she investigates the interfaces between art and science, between sociology, art history, and political activism, moving obliquely through these disciplines to create compositions of explosive power and precise observation."
In Passages (1996), Ponger "creates an imaginary map of the 20th century on which the stories of emigration are engraved like well-worn tracks of occidental memory," writes Christa Blümlinger. More from Bert Rebhandl in frieze. In Déjà Vu (1999), Ponger examines the notion of the "expelled and transformed 'foreigner.
