Four Parts of a Folding Screen + Fenster + a spoon

Shot in Berlin, Four Parts of a Folding Screen explores exclusion, statelessness and the legalised theft and sale of everyday family possessions by the National Socialist regime. In part, centred around objects, this programme also includes two short films: Peter Todd's a spoon and Anthea Kennedy & Ian Wiblin’s Fenster. The filmmakers will be in conversation with Gareth Evans after the screening.

Margaret Tait: The Movement That Light Is

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 07/10/2019 - 09:16

Scottish poet filmmaker Margaret Tait (1918–1999) has long been one of the best-kept secrets of British cinema. In intimate films attuned to the secret life of things, people, and landscapes, Tait sought to reveal the other side of existence – the side we only notice when our own presence in the world comes to the foreground. An independent mind and eye, she focused on what she saw before her, be it the streets of Edinburgh, the crashing sea on Orkney or a pair of old boots in a barn, shedding an singular light on the manifold dimensions of things.

Stan Brakhage the realm buster
Stan Brakhage’s body of work counts as one of the most important within post-war avant-garde cinema, and yet it has rarely been given the attention it deserves. Over the years, though, diverse and original reflections have developed, distancing his figure little by little from critical categories. This collection of newly commissioned essays, plus some important reprinted work, queries some of the consensus on Brakhage’s films. In particular, many of these essays revolve around the controversial issues of representation and perception.
