Patrick Oliphant was a giant slayer, bravely taking on presidents, popes and the American corporate class with his mighty pen. An Australian transplant, Oliphant became America’s most renowned and feared political cartoonist for five decades. With his biting wit and masterful drawing skills, Oliphant attacked individual and institutional corruption, collusion, greed, hypocrisy and arrogance, no matter the size or status of his targets. 　　A SAVAGE ART tells the story of Oliphant’s life and celebrated career through interviews with Pat, his family, friends, and colleagues, alongside a rich trove of archival footage and hundreds of his cartoons. The film also traces the history of political cartoons, highlighting how influential and impactful cartoonists have been throughout the ages—and how, in today’s climate of political partisanship and corporate media control, voices like Oliphant’s are more essential than ever in holding power to account.

“Buildings are like people to me, they tell stories.” For more than 50 years, renowned installation artist Donna Dennis builds under-scaled houses to metaphorically honor lost friends. Ironically, her own home studio comes under threat in a decades long struggle against the forces of real estate in New York City. Rich with quotations from hundreds of journals going back to the early 1970s, the film reveals the voice of a poet, searching for meaning and metaphor, questioning what happens to a person when they die and documenting the journey the work takes her on.
