Against the National Project: Memory and Mobility in Contemporary Colombian Cinema

Tue 6 March 2018

Againstthenational4 tbwu

Archivist and curator Juana Suárez (NYU Tisch School of the Arts) presents a programme of four recent short films by Colombian filmmakers living abroad. Works by Juan Soto, Laura Huertas Millán, Camilo Restrepo and Gonzalo Escobar unsettle established narratives of national cinema though counter-hegemonic perspectives. Experimental uses of archives, intersections with video art, and explorations of texture and place characterise this radical and developing body of work.


Introduction by Juana Suárez
Q&A with filmmaker Juan Soto

Contra el proyecto nacional: Memoria y movilidad en el cine colombiano contemporáneo


La archivista y curadora Juana Suárez (NYU Tisch School of the Arts) presenta un programa de cuatro cortometrajes de realizadores colombianos en la diáspora. Los trabajos de Juan Soto, Laura Huertas Millán, Camilo Restrepo y Gonzalo Escobar desestabilizan las narrativas establecidas del cine nacional mediante perspectivas anti-hegemónicas. El uso experimental del material de archivo, las intersecciones con el video-arte, y las exploraciones de texturas y lugares caracterizan este corpus radical y en desarrollo.
