SELECTED EXPERIMENTAL AND ANIMATED WORKS FROM THE WOMEN’S FILM PRESERVATION FUND
June 21 – June 22
Since 1996 the Women’s Film Preservation Fund of New York Women in Film & Television has preserved nearly 150 American-made films by women covering almost every genre and representing women makers of many different backgrounds, from the early days of filmmaking to the present. Among these films are a number of significant experimental and animated works, many of which reflect pioneering approaches and unique voices. This series will showcase a selection of experimental and animated films, many of which have been preserved in collaboration with Anthology.
Guest-curated by Ann Deborah Levy, Co-Chair of the Women’s Film Preservation Fund Steering Committee, who also wrote the introduction and film descriptions.
