"The coolest film organization in the world." —John Waters
On WEDNESDAY, JUNE 11th, at 7pm, The Film-Makers' Cooperative is honored to present Chiasm of Lament, an audio-visual trilogy by longtime FMC member, multimedia artist Anne Katrine Senstad. Senstad will be IN ATTENDANCE to discuss the trilogy and present original prints, which are now for sale through our online store.
Chiasm of Lament is an audio-visual response to the transitory and transformational age we find ourselves in, where technology and generative information has been given spiritual and existential power. The title refers to crossing of paths that are melancholic in nature, a sphere of ambiguous transactions and embodied transformations that move in alternate or opposing directions.
