No Future - Short films about Tomorrow

By Marcos Ortega on Thu, 18/04/2024 - 12:03

The future cannot be predicted, but that is no reason not to try experimental film: reflections on 16mm, video and in 3D about the experience of time, the play with expectations and the desire to “see in a new way” develop. 'No Future' is dedicated to various facets of the future from the 1920s to the present 2020s.

Program curated by Karola Gramann, Heide Schlüpmann and Björn Schmitt. As part of the 17th LICHTER Filmfest

Club des Femmes: Her Image Fades as Her Voice Rises

By Marcos Ortega on Wed, 23/11/2016 - 07:06

Join us for a dynamic and timely re-staging of Circles’ inaugural film programme ‘Her Image Fades as her Voice Rises’ (1982), with films selected by Lis Rhodes and Felicity Sparrow. A selection of four films by four filmmakers made across time and different generations of women filmmakers placed in dialogue with each other.

Circles, founded in 1979, was the first feminist film and video distribution organisation in the UK that emerged out of a heightened moment in the 1970s narrative of London’s feminist film history, politics and collective activism in which the Women’s Liberation Movement played an influential part. Cirlces provided an essential role in the promotion and distribution of exclusively women filmmakers, supporting filmmaking that varied from political and social documentary to more experimental practice.
