In-person: film preservationist and author Ross Lipman. 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. Notfilm U.S., 2015 10th anniversary screening Writer-director Ross Lipman’s deep dive into the production of literary giant, Irish playwright Samuel Beckett’s only movie, Film (co-directed with Alan Schneider, 1965), was hailed as one of the 10 best films of the year when it was released and stands a decade later as a master class in historical, aesthetic and thematic exposition. Weaving together primary documents, first-person interviews, archival materials and more, Lipman explores how the influences and concerns of a cavalcade of artists, both the celebrated and the obscure (including Beckett, star Buster Keaton, cinematographer Boris Kaufman and publisher Barney Rosset) coalesced — or not — into one of the most enigmatic and evocative cinematic works of the 20th century.—Senior Public Programmer Paul Malcolm DCP, color, 130 min. Director/Screenwriter: Ross Lipman. With: Kevin Brownlow, Leonard Maltin, Judith Douw. Part of: Ross Lipman and The Archival Impermanence Project Location: Billy Wilder Theater at the Hammer Museum

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. The Man Without a World U.S., 1991 Los Angeles restoration premiere! Through the persona of a censored, persecuted Soviet-era filmmaker, Yevgeny Antinov, writer-director Eleanor Antin constructs a captivating silent film portrait of Jewish shtetl life in 1920s Poland. Evocative of Guy Maddin, Antin remediates and repurposes period melodrama suffusing Jewish communal life before the Holocaust with mysticism, politics and homespun wisdom swirling in a pot of love, jealousy and murder. Presented with live original music composed and performed by world-renowned klezmer violinist Alicia Svigals and celebrated silent film pianist Donald Sosin, The Man Without a World was largely overlooked on its initial release but, restored in 2020, it is, as Ross Lipman writes, “ripe to at last be truly discovered.”—Senior Public Programmer Paul Malcolm DCP, b&w, silent with live musical accompaniment, 98 min. Director/Screenwriter: Eleanor Antin. With: Pier Marton, Christine Berry, Anna Henriques. Restored by Milestone Films with funding from the Sunrise Foundation for Education and the Arts. This screening was made possible with the essential support of the Sunrise Foundation for Education and the Arts. Part of: Ross Lipman and The Archival Impermanence Project Location: Billy Wilder Theater at the Hammer Museum

Four Women U.S., 1975 Set to Nina Simone’s stirring ballad of the same name, Julie Dash’s dance film features Linda Martina Young as strong “Aunt Sarah,” tragic mulatto “Saffronia,” sensuous “Sweet Thing” and militant “Peaches.” Kinetic camerawork and editing, richly colored lighting, and meticulous costume, makeup and hair design work together with Young’s sensitive performance to turn longstanding Black female stereotypes to oblique, critical angles.—Jacqueline Stewart 16mm, color, 7 min. Director: Julie Dash. With: Linda Martina Young. The Juniper Tree Iceland, 1990 While still a graduate film student at UCLA, writer-director Nietzchka Keene used a Fulbright Fellowship to shoot this stunning folk horror story adapted from a Grimm fairytale on location in Iceland. Premiering at the Sundance Film Festival, The Juniper Tree features a pre-Sugarcubes Björk in her film debut as one of a pair of sisters (the other played by Bryndis Petra Bragadóttir) who are cast to the rocky wilds after their mother is accused of witchcraft and burned alive. The harsh but beautiful Icelandic landscape captured in dazzling black and white by cinematographer Randolph Sellars feels, as Ross Lipman writes, “so palpable it almost functions as a character.”—Senior Public Programmer Paul Malcolm 35mm, b&w, 79 min. Director/Screenwriter: Nietzchka Keene. With: Björk, Bryndis Petra Bragadóttir, Valdimar Örn Flygenring. Restored by the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research and The Film Foundation, with funding provided by the George Lucas Family Foundation.
