Join us for an afternoon of experimental shorts, programmed by Hannah Bonner in collaboration with the Iowa City International Documentary Film Festival.
The showcase will feature films from Ayanna Dozier and Amy Halpern. After the screening join us for a Q&A with the author of Film Elegy, poet Laura Paul, and Ayanna Dozier.
In "'A' is for Another Woman," writer Hannah Bonner brings together two disparate filmmakers that are neither linked by formal concerns, nor themes. Therefore, this program is a capacious approach to, and exploration of, women as actresses, symbols, classes, or figures. By reveling in multiplicities, "'A' is for Another Woman" seeks to broaden, rather than narrow, the vexed appellation of "woman."
