Are those the projection formats listed? One film will be projected on an 8mm
(not super 8) projector, and the other on a 16mm projector?
Thanks, John Porter, Toronto

The FILM-MAKERS'
COOP is pleased to present two films by Cynthia Madansky.

The Film-Makers' Cooperative475
Park Ave South, 6th FloorNew York, NY 10016

RSVP REQUIRED: i...@film-makerscoop.com
PROGRAM:
Still Life
8mm, 15 min. 2004.
Still Life gazes unflinchingly at the violence of war,
observing the eerie architecture of the West Bank and Gaza
Strip collapsed under Israeli occupation.
ḤARĀM
16mm, 47 min. 2017.
ḤARĀM is an essay film portraying the urgent contemporary
situation at the Haram Al Sharif/ Noble Sanctuary reflecting
on the growing Temple Mount Faithful movement whose goal is
to build the Third Temple on this holy Muslim site.
The films by Cynthia Madansky integrate hybrid forms of
cinematic traditions including autobiography, experimental
methodologies, cinema vérité, scripted narrative,
ethnographic observation as well as dance and performance.
Her work engages with cultural and political themes, such as
identity, nationalism, the transgression of borders,
displacement, nuclear arms and war, foregrounding the human
experience and personal testimony. Using 16mm, super 8 and
video, her films portray the consequences of politics on the
daily lives of individuals, interrogating the concept of
personal responsibility and national accountability.
A Q with Madansky will follow the
screening.
