“Although obtaining “access” to filming one’s family is often taken for granted, making films with family brings to the surface complicated internal dynamics while creating new ones. This three-day workshop will seek to help participants navigate these shifting dynamics, by unpacking familial and filmic bonds––their constrictions, contracts, knots, and forms of care.
The workshop will be led by filmmaker / artist Jordan Lord, whose work focuses on the dependencies and debts that circulate within families…
Acclaimed filmmakers Angelo Madsen Minax (North by Current), Tiffany Sia (What Rules the Invisible), Ha’aheo Auwae-Dekker – and others to be announced soon – will join the workshop to discuss their own work and think through these questions.”
