My Body, Your Body, Our Bodies: Somatic Cinema at Home and in the World - an Expanded Cinema Screening and Talk by Lynne Sachs

Synopsis

How do we negotiate the photographing of images that contain the body? What experiential, political or aesthetic contingencies do we bring to both the making and viewing of a cinema that contains the human form? If a body is different from our own – in terms of gender, skin color, or age – do we frame it differently? How does looking at a body on screen make us feel? At CCA, New York filmmaker Lynne Sachs will guide her audience through her own evolution as a filmmaker by sharing excerpts from her own films. In this way, she will explore the fraught and bewildering challenge of looking at the human form from behind the lens.
