Gravitational Lensing - Prequel Screening & Fundraiser

6-8pm
Admission: $10-100 sliding scale
March is Women's History month! And we are kicking off this month's programming with a stellar screening of films made over the past 50 years that are both entertaining and thought-provoking that speak to a spectrum of women's issues including mother-child relationships, mental health and self-determination.
This very special screening will include the films Women and Children at Large (1973) by Freude, Killing Time (1979) by Fronza Woods, Schmeerguntz (1965) by Gunvor Nelson & Dorothy Wiley, Anything You Want to Be (1971) by Liane Brandon, Chronicles of a Lying Spirit by Kelly Gabron (1992) by Cauleen Smith, Our Voices in Reverse (2013) by Nadia Shihab, Noa, Noa (2006) by Lynne Sachs and Edge of Alchemy by Stacey Steers.
All proceeds from the screening will go towards supporting the forthcoming series Gravitational Lensing: Feminist Film Dialogues, that we will be launching at Shapeshifters beginning in April.
Many thanks to the filmmakers and to Canyon Cinema, Pacific Film Archive and Women Make Movies for loaning films for this event!
