Lost Landscapes of San Francisco: Creativity, Style, Resistance & Freedom

LOST LANDSCAPES OF SAN FRANCISCO doubly celebrates this year! First, our 20th anniversary, and second, San Francisco itself — center of creativity, style, resistance and freedom.
The city shines throughout this wide-ranging, unbounded panorama made from 128 years of San Francisco moving images with a soundtrack made fresh by you, the audience, as the film plays. Come and share the excitement as we build a new history of San Francisco from assembled film ephemera!
Drawn from some 300 newly-unearthed (and a few familiar) archival films, LOST LANDSCAPES 20 recreates the textures and activities of everyday life, labor and play, replaying known and unknown historical moments, daylighting lost and found infrastructures, revealing the scars of settlement and pointing to more hopeful futures. Highlights will include transportation in the air, water and on the land; images of the City's rich and resilient communities; unfamiliar footage of familiar places; countercultures and counterdemonstrators; and unpredictable moments on the streets.
