Looking back over a history of one hundred years, experimental cinema has rigorously challenged cinematic conventions. To reach beyond telling stories, artists and filmmakers examined the material conditions of their medium, such as light, motion, celluloid and, with the advent of television and video, electronic signals. This relationship with the technical device—whether a camera or a computer—revolutionized the creative process and opened ever new possibilities for critically reflecting the world we live in.

IWFF Revisited: Experimental Films from the 1970s and 1980curated by Kat Lawinia Gorska
IWFF revisited delves into the Festival's archive. A selection of films from the 1970-1980s reveals the premises behind the founding of the Festival. In its early years the Festival was marked by formative convictions and ideas. What types were they? What was to be shown? Why? And who was supposed to see it all?
Dates:
Sunday, September 13, 2020 - 12:00 to Monday, September 14, 2020 - 11:55
This edition of (S8) Mostra Internacional de Cinema Periférico is called The Secret Garden, a title that traces back to the spring we were forced to spend indoors and that the festival wishes to bring back by making plants and flowers bloom on the screens of viewers. The poster of the festival, which will be held from September 27 to October 3, is a tribute to that celebration of spring –a lavish collage of plants, petals, and flowers.
Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival is delighted to announce the main programme for its sixteenth edition, taking place from Thursday 17 September to Sunday 11 October 2020. Online access to the Festival in the UK will be through Festival Passes and professional accreditation will be available worldwide.
