cter of the practice of filmmaking itself.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 18px">The screening is part of </span><strong><span style="font-size: 18px">Revisiting Feminist Moving Image</span></strong><span style="font-size: 18px">, a series at e-flux Screening Room aimed at revisiting the origins, contexts, developments, and impact of feminist video art and experimental cinema around the world from the 1960s through the present.</span></p><p><strong><span style="font-size: 18px">Films</span></strong></p><p><em><strong><span style="font-size: 18px">Meet the People</span></strong></em><span style="font-size: 18px"> (1986, 16 minutes) <br />Blurring the line between documentary and fiction, truth and artifice, </span><em><span style="font-size: 18px">Meet the People</span></em><span style="font-size: 18px"> presents fourteen “characters” who face the camera in talking-head close-ups and speak about their lives and dreams. The intimacy and honesty of their fragmented, “autobiographical” storytelling is illusory; the credits reveal that these people are professional actors, playing fictional roles, reading a script. The work points to the complicity on the part of the viewer in her/his desire to believe and identify with the traditions of and characters on TV. The same television that mimics a perfected form of identity of the “average person” is also in part responsible for creating this identity; it both researches, uses, and manufactures this “average person's” hopes and dreams. And so the question of the existence of a “real” person becomes “real” compared to what?</span></p><p><em><strong><span style="font-size: 18px">Things I Forget to Tell Myself</span></strong></em><strong><span style="font-size: 18px"> </span></strong><span style="font-size: 18px">(1989, 2 minutes) <br />“In Shelly Silver's </span><em><span style="font-size: 18px">Things I Forget To Tell Myself</span></em><span style="font-size: 18px">, a fragmented textual statement is interspersed with imagery culled from NYC, much of it cropped by the camera operator's outstretched hand. Buildings, windows, signs, pedestrians, cops and doors constitute a continuum of access and obstruction. The sometimes alternating, sometimes simultaneous patterns of disclosure and withholding, recognition and inobservance, are scrutinized to reveal the imprints of psychological processes and cultural codes, while testing boundaries between seeing and reading." (Michael Nash, curator, The Long Beach Museum of Art)</span></p><p><em><strong><span style="font-size: 18px">We</span></strong></em><strong><span style="font-size: 18px"> </span></strong><span style="font-size: 18px">(1990, 4 minutes) <br />A short, graphically dynamic work contrasting contradictory views of perception and interpretation, by way of society's assumptions vis-a-vis phallocentrism and fetishism.</span></p><p><em><strong><span style="font-size: 18px">a tiny place that is hard to touch</span></strong></em><strong><span style="font-size: 18px"> (触れがたき小さな場所) </span></strong><span style="font-size: 18px">(2019, 38 minutes) <br />In a faceless apartment in Tatekawa, Tokyo, an American woman hires a Japanese woman to translate interviews about Japan’s declining birth rate. The American woman is presumptuous in her knowledge of Japan; the Japanese woman suffers from a self-professed excess of critical distance. They grate, fight, and crash together in love or lust, at which point their story gets hijacked into science-fiction territory, as the translator interrupts their work sessions with stories from a world infected with the knowledge of its own demise. This neighborhood has already known devastation, having been wiped out the night of March 9th, 1945, by American bombs. The third protagonist is the Tatekawa itself, the canal covered by an elevated highway that runs past the translator’s apartment, which gives the neighborhood its name. Reflecting back the concrete world in distorted patterns of blue, green or glittering black, the Tatekawa transports a shifting procession of birds, shoes, condoms, crabs, plastic bags, flowers, big fish, little fish, death, life.</span></p><p class="last-child"><span style="font-size: 18px">For more information, contact program@e-flux.com.</span></p></div></td></tr><tr><td style="padding-top:12px;padding-bottom:12px;padding-right:0;padding-left:0" class="mceSpacing-24" valign="top"><table role="presentation" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" align="center"><tbody><tr class="mceRow"><td style="background-position:center;background-repeat:no-repeat;background-size:cover" valign="top"><table role="presentation" width="100%" cellspacing="24" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td class="mceColumn" colspan="12" width="100%" valign="top"><table role="presentation" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td class="mceSpacing-24" valign="top" align="center"><table role="presentation" class="mceClusterLayout" width="" c
