About
** Co-presented with Interbay Cinema Society! **
This program showcases female filmmakers who sought to carve out a place within the male- dominated world of Latin American independent audiovisual production. Key works, such as Argentine filmmaker Narcisa Hirschs Come Out (1971), exemplify the defiant position toward gendered and essentializing aesthetics expected of Latin American women filmmakers. This program includes pioneering Uruguayan filmmaker Lydia García Milláns Color (1955), one of the first abstract experimental films from Latin America; the politically charged Super 8 experiments by Puerto Rican underground artist Poli Marichal; and a recent video essay by Mexican artist Ximena Cuevas.
