FREE screening for Iowa City Free Week!

Starting at 11am, the 52 minute film will play on loop until 3pm. Come for ten minutes or a full runtime!

Artist Talk and Q&A with Ian Bennett at Noon, Thursday, 2/20 between screenings. Guests allowed to bring their own brown bag lunch.


In this poetic meditation on the half-century history of the Ped Mall, Iowa City artist Ian Bennett reassembles archival film and video, found footage and photos, interviews through the ages, and contemporary reflections. A video loop that is both of its time and out of time. Members of the public are invited to pause and contemplate, and can enter at any point.


An encore presentation from the 2024 Refocus Film Festival | Supported by the Iowa City 2024 Public Art Matching Grant Program.
