This new effort gave the organization another aspect, different from being just a film festival. Larry Shea and Stephen Winter took the helm of the festival in 2003. Jonathan Caouette's Tarnation was shepherded into being under Winter's supervision, and its premiere as the festival centerpiece was the beginning of its illustrious path to Cannes, the New York Film Festival and a distribution deal with Wellspring in 2004. Shea and Winter also reimagined the 1000 Dreams of Desire program from 1993, re-staging it, with differences, at the same Ann Street location as the original. This time, in addition to the video booths and screening room on the upper floors, the basement was also cleared out, and set up with DJs, ambient 16mm & 8mm film projections, and a dance floor.

Historian Gavin Souter describes O'Malley at this time: > O'Malley's monstrously overgrown persona seemed to be inhabited > simultaneously by a spruiker from Barnum's three-ring circus, a hell-and- > tarnation revivalist, and a four-flushing Yankee Congressman. He was a > moderately big man, auburn-haired with watchful grey eyes and a red-brown > beard, wearing a wide-brimmed felt hat, blue-grey suit with huge lapels and > a low-cut vest, loose cravat with a diamond collar stud, and in the centre > of his cream silk shirt-front a fiery opal. O'Malley was clearly one of the more prominent and colourful members of the Parliament, but his radical ideas were not widely accepted, and many regarded him as a charlatan. He became a prominent advocate of a national bank as a means of providing cheap credit for farmers and small businessmen.
