Event Details

Open Secret: The Third Edition continues as a series composed of screenings, conversations, and workshops with our third program this season guest curated by Inney Prakash, founder and Artistic Director of Prismatic Ground, an annual festival in New York City centered on experimental documentary and avant-garde film.

A Q&A follows the screening with Prakash in attendance.

Home is a thing we are always giving away
Prismatic Ground presents a program of short works by filmmakers exploring the gaps in their relationships to ancestral homelands, including, in the case of Lindsay McIntyre’s Tukuit— from which this program takes its title— the earth upon which Canada has imposed its borders. From Palestine to Algeria to Haiti to China, the faint outlines of nations dissolve beneath a vivid 16mm overlay of memory and imagination; loss and dislocation give way to psychogeographical chimeras, rendering fine grain into personal visions of here and elsewhere. Rumors of a new regional avant-garde emerge: is the future of cinema in its origins and ours?

Open Secret is curated by Nasrin Himada, Associate Curator, Academic Outreach and Community Engagement
