This program of experimental film and video works unpacks and studies the medium of moving image itself, along with a wide array of subject matter and concepts. From stories including pregnancy, urban life, the “owl theory”, and self-affirming rituals, this group of artists inventively plays with new and compelling methods of filmmaking.
Total Run Time: 73 minutes
This program will be followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers.
Programmed by Guest Festival Shorts Programmer, Emily Eddy.
Content Considerations: Strong language, implied violence.
In Morning Sickness in the USA, the director shares the story of her grandmother, who was quarantined in 1961 after seeing a doctor for inexplicable nausea. Having immigrated to the US from Puerto Rico, doctors suspected she had an infectious disease and put her in quarantine in a mental asylum. The reason for her nausea was later revealed to be pregnancy.
