Published by University of Minnesota Press, Cinemal is part of a growing focus on nonhuman animals in film. Cinemal ventures to the “furry underbelly” of global experimental film practice, focusing on films from New Zealand, Australia, and South America. Laird examines how animals are depicted in film and analyzes the various animal qualities of cinema, like scratching and sniffing, vibrant colors, and voices (barking, howling, or echolocation).
The screening features works by Nova Paul, Arthur & Corinne Cantrill with Ivor Cantrill, Sriwhana Spong, Tina Stefanou, and Peter Waples-Crowe with Glynn Urquhart.
Free entry, seats limited.
