20 ans de Double Négatif 1
For this latest edition of the experimental film symposium, we offer a retrospective of a major American filmmaker (Henry Hills, in attendance), provide updates on current female production, accompany director Christian Lapointe in his first experience with radical cinema, host musician Sam Shalabi, and present two forgotten classics, one of which is a newly restored version that we have just completed.
With guests
Since the mid-2000s, Double Négatif has brought together a substantial portion of creative talents involved in the experimental film scene of Montreal and the province of Quebec. A number of landmark works have benefited from increased collaboration between filmmakers, from the sharing of equipment to the establishment of a shared aesthetic spirit. The desire to highlight the specificity of film produced and shown on analog media is an essential feature. To celebrate their 20th anniversary, we're showing a few key films.
Mouvement de lumière Karl Lemieux, Las Mujeres de Pinochet (Pinochet’s Women) Eduardo Menz, Artifacts Steven Ladouceur, Sans chemin (L’Ocelle Mare) Charles-André Coderre, Ghosts and Gravel Roads Mike Rollo, Dans les cieux et sur la terre Erin Weisgerber, Altiplano Malena Szlam, Trees of Syntax, Leaves of Axis Daïchi Saïto.
