10.25.15 In the Memory of Chantal Akerman We Watch  


Doors at 6PM, Screening at 6:30PM 

Saute Ma Ville, 1968, 13min
Je Tu Il Elle, 1976, 86min
Toute une Nuit, 1982, 89 min

On Sunday October 25 we want to pay tribute to Chantal Akerman, a filmmaker that has changed our lives and our eyes to see cinema, to be cinema. We can’t believe and don’t want to accept her disappearance. We felt the need to mourn and homage her with a screening, in the silent social created before her images. We chose these three titles because they broke our hearts and shattered our gazes to what cinema had the power to do, a tool in the right hands. It also will give us a way into her many paces, rejoicing in her surgical cinematography.

Join us to say good bye to Chantal and long live her memory, her legacy made celluloid, taken by the hand of her strong, quiet heroines. 
Films will be preceded by an introduction by Berenice Reynaud, curator of Film at REDCAT Theatre.

Free of charge. FB event
