Bad Feminists Making Films
Sensory Ethnography & the Politics of Collaboration
with Mariangela Mihai & Miasarah from Ethnocine Collective
6 — 8 pm
Wednesday, March 13th
Visual Arts Center (VAC) 100
What is revealed in the space between ethnography and fiction? What potentialities might images hold in facilitating such revelations? How do researchers, activists, and makers navigate the politics of imageproduction
and distribution in different sociopolitical contexts? How do relationships among filmmakers and their interlocutors d/evolve during the process of collaborative image-production? Join us for an intimate conversation with feminist filmmakers discussing their filmmaking journeys, including cringeworthy moments, collaborative failures and successes, and tips for navigating and challenging cis-male dominated spaces.
