Yes/No: A Conversation with Filmmaker Lynne Sachs

April 1, 2016 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Cinematheque Special Programs Presents:

Award-winning filmmaker Lynne Sachs will screen and discuss her films Your Day is my Night, Every Fold Matters, and The House of Drafts: A Bosnian American Web Collaboration.

Lynne Sachs makes film, installations, performances, and web projects that explore the intricate relationship between personal observations and broader historical experiences by weaving together poetry, collage, painting, politics, and layered sound design. Strongly committed to a dialogue between cinematic theory and practice, she searches for a rigerous play between image and sound, pushing the visual and aural textures in her work with each and every new project. Lynn Sachs teaches at NYU, and her work has screened globally. In 2014, she received a Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship in Film and Video.

 

Co-sponsored by the Gross Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Ramapo College and the Platinum Fund.
