CATHEDRAL PARK

CATHEDRAL PARK, a highly original film set against the backdrop of Otisia and America is this year’s Northwest Emerging Artist award winner! When Vai discovers a box of film hidden carefully away in the family basement, two generations of secrets are revealed setting off a chain of events that bridge the old world with the new and blur the lines between fact and fiction. Shot in faux documentary style on location in and around Portland and on a total budget of less than $30,000, this inventive film, resplendent with its own original, invented language, tells the story of how secrets can tear families down and truths are the foundations for rebuilding.

		VINCENT CALDONI, a Northwest native and recent Art Institute graduate, began pursuing the performing arts while at Grant High School. There he began writing and directing and produced several plays, going so far as to take several pieces on the road performing them worldwide. In 2002, he joined with several other Art Institute students to form the Blueprintfilms collective. In 2004, he wrote and directed his first short film, The Accordian and has gone on to work on several shorts, features and music videos in a myriad of capacities. CATHEDRAL PARK is his first feature film.
		C.K. LICHENSTEIN II, a Northwest transplant, has produced five features, worked on several others, both in front of and behind the camera, and has even made a few of his own short films, all while usually holding down a day job. With no formal training he had to learn as he went, when he produced his first feature the road-trip comedy THE SEXY CHEF. Finding he had a natural talent for dealing with the pitfalls of filmmaking, C.K. has been able to devote the majority of his free time with working with the talented filmmakers in the burgeoning, Portland, indie scene.
