PROGRAM
Framing Collective Action (Street)
The screening series Framing Collective Action presents artistic and documentary films created within collective structures. By linking historical and contemporary examples, the series explores the potentials of collective filmmaking through diverse aesthetic approaches. Each film program focuses on a specific spatial context (House, Street, Land) and examines the political and social impact of collective filmmaking both in front of and behind the camera, within and beyond the frame.
Time and again, the street serves as a stage for social struggle. While it is used every day as an infrastructural space, it is only through collective and physical occupation that it becomes a public arena where socio-political demands can be voiced. This is shown in the three short films selected for this program, entitled Street, which span different times and places—from 1983 to 2021, and from Georgetown to Kinshasa and Vienna. The films take varied approaches to dealing with the street, at times performative, documentary, theatrical, or activist. In doing so, they document actions that expose the lasting legacies of colonialism and anti-Semitism while also opening up possibilities for change.
With works by artist group Schandwache, Collectif Faire-Part, Victor Jara Collective
