The Body is a House of Familiar Rooms

Dirs. Eloise Sherrid & Lauryn Welch | 2022

Swerve

Dir. Lynne Sachs | 2022
8min
With poetry by Paolo Javier

 

A food market and playground in Queens, NY becomes the site for this film inspired by Paolo Javier’s Original Brown Boy poems. The film itself transforms into an ars poetica/cinematica—a meditation on writing and making images in the liminal space between a global pandemic and what might come next—as five New York City performers speak in verse while wandering through food stalls in search of a new sensation. World Premiere!

 
 
ᎤᏕᏲᏅ (What They’ve Been Taught)

Dir. Brit Hensel | 2022
9min

 

Filmed on the Qualla Boundary and Cherokee Nation, ᎤᏕᏲᏅ (What They’ve Been Taught) explores expressions of reciprocity in the Cherokee world, brought to life by an elder and a first language speaker. Premiering at Sundance, the documentary circles the intersection of tradition, language, land, and a commitment to maintaining balance.

 
 
 
The Fire This Time

Dir. Mariam Ghani | 2022

A kaleidoscopic trip through the intertwined histories of pandemics, riots, and colonial violence. An archive constantly haunted by its possible collapse. Featuring the voices of science journalist Sonia Shah, poet and literary scholar Anjuli Raza Kolb, medical anthropologist Christos Lynteris, epidemiologist Keiji Fukuda, economist William A.
