SCREENINGS

Projection-ang

We propose a programme in which archival films are not merely screened but resonate with the central theme of the 2026 Symposium: restorations and heritage prints, and films that examine the history of images, their reuse, and their power to transmit memory.

Detailed programme coming soon (PDF).
