Details
Myths, legends, folktales and fairytales are all communally-shared stories handed down through generations that attempt to explain the world, answer timeless questions and serve as a moral compass. The films in this program re-cast and re-direct some of these narratives through a contemporary, feminist lens to illuminate new understandings of these otherwise universal tales.
Screening: The Story of Lillith (1997, 16mm film) by Lynne Sachs; Calypso (2021, DV) by Mariangela Ciccarello; Panyen Banbou (2023, DV) by Laïssa Christelle Alexis; and Pythoness (1979, 16mm film) by Amy Halpern.
