Futures Elsewhere Film Programme Part One
Date and time
Join us at the Zabludowicz Collection for a night of film!
About this event
"It is doubtful if cinema is sufficient for this; but, if the world become a bad cinema, in which we no longer believe, surely a true cinema can contribute to giving us back reasons to believe in the world and in vanished bodies." – Gilles Deleuze
Join us live at the gallery for a night of film as we look at narratives and experiences that move beyond a Eurocentric view on technology as part of Among the Machines exhibition at the Zabludowicz Collection. Building on the legacies of western projections of the future, we look at technological and cultural dimensions of futurity, notions of time and change when opened up to a broader range of perspectives, struggles and traditions.
The film programme is divided into two parts, the first one focuses on film-makers from South East Asia and the Pacific, including, Thao Nguyen Phan, Gabber Modus Operandi, and Gavin Hipkins.
Whilst the second iteration expands on the entanglements of social technologies filtered through a trans-historical narrative of empire and colonialisation through the works of Kidlat Tahimik and Tabita Rezaire.
This event is FREE, booking recommended.
