Part of: Beyond Barbie Presented by the UCLA Film & Television Archive In-person: Prerecorded video introduction and Q&A with "System Crasher" director Nora Fingscheidt. Summer 1993 Spain, 2017 Carla Simón’s tender coming-of-age film follows Frida, a young girl from Barcelona grieving her mother’s untimely death. Sent to live with her uncle’s family in rural Catalonia, Frida struggles with loss and belonging. The film unfolds from her perspective, capturing childhood’s quiet mysteries. Subtly alluding to the early ’90s HIV/AIDS crisis, it never explicitly names the illness. Through evocative performances from its child actors and Simón’s delicate hand, it portrays childhood grief and resilience with stunning, unspoken depth. DCP, color, 96 min. Director/Screenwriter: Carla Simón. With: Laia Artigas, Paula Robles, Bruna Cusí, David Verdaguer, Fermí Reixach. System Crasher Systemsprenger, Germany, 2019 The trauma-fueled rage of a volatile nine-year-old, Benni, pushes her through an endless cycle of foster homes. Actor Helena Zengel (News of the World) astonishes with her full-bodied performance. Avoiding sensationalism, writer-director Nora Fingscheidt immerses us in Benni’s chaotic world, where even the most patient caregivers struggle. The film offers no easy answers, instead it urges viewers to confront the complexities of trauma: How far are we willing to go to help wounded children heal? DCP, color, 119 min. Director/Screenwriter: Nora Fingscheidt. With: Helena Zengel, Albrecht Schuch, Gabriela Maria Schmeide, Lisa Hagmeister. —Public Programmer Beandrea July Location: Billy Wilder Theater

Part of: Food and Film Presented by UCLA Film & Television Archive and the Hammer Museum In-person: chef and restaurateur Alice Waters. Admission is free. No advance reservations. Your seat will be assigned to you when you pick up your ticket at the box office. Seats are assigned on a first come, first served basis. The box office opens one hour before the event. Pather Panchali India, 1955 A masterwork of world cinema, writer-director Satyajit Ray’s directorial debut, Pather Panchali (1955), is also one of its most eloquent expressions of food’s profound role in human life. Hunger frames much of Ray’s neorealist portrait of an impoverished family struggling to make ends meet in rural Bengal. Its ever-present threat lays bare the physical, cultural, emotional and spiritual dimensions of even the simplest meals. This evening’s program reflects on these resonances, particularly as intuitively understood by the couple’s young children, as well as pay tribute to Alice Waters’ longtime friend and cinema lover, Bay Area film curator, producer and festival director Tom Luddy.—Senior Public Programmer Paul Malcolm DCP, b&w, Bengali with English subtitles, 125 min. Director: Satyajit Ray. Screenwriter: Satyajit Ray. With: Kanu Bannerjee, Karuna Banerjee, Chunibala Devi. Special thanks to our community partner: UCLA Rothman Family Institute for Food Studies(opens in a new tab). Location: Billy Wilder Theater

Part of: (Dis)placement: Fluctuations of Home Presented by the UCLA Film & Television Archive In-person: filmmaker Lupita Limon Corrales. Admission is free. No advance reservations. Your seat will be assigned to you when you pick up your ticket at the box office. Seats are assigned on a first come, first served basis. The box office opens one hour before the event. (Dis)placement: Fluctuations of Home opens with the works and words of community organizers and filmmakers. Through meetings, poetry and visual arts education and collaboration, these artists engage profoundly with their communities. The films in this program depict the ongoing housing struggles from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C. The evening includes films by UCLA alumni: L.A. Rebellion filmmakers Charles Burnett (’69, M.F.A. ’77) and Shirikiana Aina (M.A. ’82), Los Angeles Filmforum programmer and educator Diego Robles (’06) and 2025 UCLA Luskin Institute Activist-in-Residence(opens in a new tab) Lupita Limón Corrales.—Associate Programmer Nicole Ucedo Brick by Brick U.S., 1982 Brick by Brick is an unflinching documentary portrait of late-’70s Washington, D.C., where Black residents face displacement amid rising gentrification. Juxtaposing the iconography of national monuments with scenes of homelessness blocks away, the film highlights the Seaton Street project, a powerful example of tenant resistance. Nearly 40 years later, Shirikiana Aina’s debut remains a prescient testament to global struggles against displacement — and a reminder of who pays the price for so-called progress in the Chocolate City.—Public Programmer Beandrea July DCP, color, 37 min. Director: Shirikiana Aina. When It Rains U.S., 1995 On New Year’s Day, a man tries to help a woman pay her rent and learns a lesson in connecting with others in a community. Ayuko Babu, founding director of the Pan African Film Festival of Los Angeles, assumes the lead role in a pleasingly empathic reading. 35mm, 13 min. Director/Screenwriter: Charles Burnett. With: Ayuko Babu, Florence Bracy, Kenny Merritt. We Are Wyvernwood U.S., 2011 This collaborative film project between Diego Robles, the LA Co-Media film collective and residents of the Wyvernwood Garden apartment complex in Boyle Heights introduces the Wyvernwood community and their shared struggle against displacement. Filmmaker and educator Diego Robles was invited to collaborate on film education initiatives at Wyvernwood during the early days of the recession — a time when residents were mobilizing against the looming threat of demolition. Through this partnership, Robles guided and participated in the creation of short films that honor the vibrant and unique community Wyvernwood residents are determined to protect.—Associate Programmer Nicole Ucedo DCP, 7 min., in English and Spanish with English subtitles. Directors: Diego Robles, Abraham Osuna of Los Angeles Collective Media (LA Co-Media), Wyvernwood residents Roberto Mujíca and Gumaro Oviedo, the Los Angeles Conservancy. Producer: Karina Muñiz. Nuestros Videos Culturales para la Preservación de Wyvernwood (Our Cultural Videos for the Preservation of Wyvernwood) U.S., 2009 Erasto Arena documented the images seen in Nuestros Videos Culturales para la Preservación de Wyvernwood at a community gathering and procession. The footage was edited by Diego Robles with input from Arena, who wanted to convey the feeling of everything moving fast and slow at the same time. For the residents of Wyvernwood, life does move at a rapid pace as they balance full-time jobs, raising children, organizing community events and resisting eviction and demolition.—Associate Programmer Nicole Ucedo DCP, 4 min. Directors: Erasto Arena de Tejaluca Puebla, Comité de la Esperanza, Diego Robles of Los Angeles Collective Media (LA Co-Media). The Need for Roots U.S., 2023 As a poet and organizer, Lupita Limón Corrales’ voice speaks clearly and loudly on the issues she and her Los Angeles community face. Lupita’s first film, The Need for Roots speaks on these issues too, but without her usual spoken word. Here Lupita’s words are visual, overlaid on footage captured from her window and the surrounding streets. Lupita’s images portray both beauty and destruction as she reflects on the changes in her Echo Park neighborhood and why home is worth defending.—Associate Programmer Nicole Ucedo DCP, 3 min. Director/Screenwriter: Lupita Limón Corrales. Location: Billy Wilder Theater
