*COUSINS AND KIN*
series curated by the Cousin Collective The Cousin Collective was formed in
2018 by Adam Piron, Alex Lazarowich, Sky Hopinka and Adam Khalil. The
question of how to find other Indigenous filmmakers who are making work
that is experimental and exciting was where we began. How to support and
share their films is where we’re at now. The programs in the Cousins and
Kin series are a culmination and a survey of the moving images we’ve
curated individually and collectively over the years. We’re thankful to
Steve Polta and San Francisco Cinematheque for this opportunity and this
platform.We’re very proud to share these works, the artists and the
conversations and communion they foster, between each other as well as
across nations and time. (Cousin Collective)

*program four Anti-Ethnography program curated by Adam Khalil and Zack
Khalil program online June 16–July 15, 2021*
For Indigenous peoples, the camera is a weapon that has been wielded
against them since the device’s inception. Anthropology’s obsession with
preserving images of so-called vanishing cultures, through ethnographic
films or, relatedly, archives filled with boxes of ancestral remains, has
long been a tool used to colonize and oppress Indigenous peoples. The
ethnographer’s encapsulating gaze ignores the fact that, for Indigenous
communities, tradition is not an immutable set of truths handed down by
revelation, but a set of ever-evolving social practices whose continuity
cannot be repaired by preservation, only elaborated through struggle and,
finally, achieved under conditions of genuine self-determination. In the
works assembled for this screening, the power of Indigenous people claiming
the camera for themselves is explored. Screening includes work by Guillermo
Gómez-Peña; Tonia Jo Hall; Shelley Niro; Diane Burns; Sky Hopinka; Kent
Monkman; Axel Gerdau, Erik Olsen & John Woo; Adam Khalil, Zack Khalil &
Jackson Polys; Olivia Camfield & Woodrow Hunt; Thirza Cuthand and others.

*THE SALESFORCE TOWER MIDNIGHT ARTIST COLLABORATION: THE ROOF GARDEN BY
SARAH KLEIN*
July’s Monthly Collaboration is with Sarah Klein who created a video titled
“The Roof Garden”. The artwork “uses the venerable storytelling form of
hand shadows, and features silhouettes of hands holding assorted flowers
and plant cuttings. In the sequence of images, the silhouettes morph into
kaleidoscopic patterns, turning the tower into one huge flower.” Her work
will be on the Salesforce Tower every night in July from Midnight – 1am.

*PERSONAL CINEMA: TAKAHIKO IIMURA*
MILLENNIUM FILM WORKSHOP, IN COLLABORATION WITH THE NEW AMERICAN CINEMA
GROUP/THE FILM-MAKERS’ COOPERATIVE AND ALLIED PRODUCTIONS INC. is proud to
present our first in-person screening of 2021: PERSONAL CINEMA: TAKAHIKO
IIMURA July 16th, 8:00 PM Le Petit Versailles, 247 E 2nd St. Takahiko
Iimura is a Japanese experimental filmmaker who has been a pioneer of
cinematic form since the early 1960s. This screening is a retrospective
spanning 30 years of his work, from 1962 to 1993. Takahiko defines his own
career as having three distinct phases, all represented in this screening
-- His early, “imagist” films depicting concrete imagery, scenario,
performance - such as *Ai (Love)* (with original score by Yoko Ono), and
*Onan*. He shifted his focus to structuralism in the late 60s and early
70s, producing experiments in form and repetition, including *In The River*.
This led to the pure conceptualism of his films from the mid-70s, including
the mathematical *+ and - (Plus and Minus)*. Takahiko Iimura’s video
experimentation represents another category of his multifaceted work, and
we will be showing *Camera/Monitor/Frame* and *AIEUONN* from among his
video selections as well. A 20 Minute Zoom discussion with Takahiko Iimura,
recorded June 2021 will screen before the works. All films will be
presented on original 16mm prints from The Film-makers’ Cooperative. Films:
Camera/Monitor/Frame Ai (love) Onan Film Strips I + II Seeing/Not Seeing
AIUEONN In The River + and - (Plus and Minus) Kiri (fog) This program was
curated by Joe Wakeman, Millennium Film Workshop Board member and
filmmaker, with assistance from MM Serra of the New American Cinema
Group/Film-Makers’ Cooperative, Anri Vartanov and from Takahiko Iimura and
Kentaro Taki.

*EPHRAIM ASILI'S THE INHERITANCE*
Pennsylvania-born filmmaker Ephraim Asili has been exploring different
facets of the African diaspora—and his own place within it—for nearly a
decade. His feature-length debut, The Inheritance, is a vibrant, engaging
ensemble work that takes place almost entirely within the walls of a West
Philadelphia house where a community of young people have come together to
form a collective of Black artists and activists. Based partly on Asili’s
own experiences in a Black liberationist group, the film interweaves a
scripted drama of characters attempting to work towards political consensus
with a documentary recollection of the Philadelphia liberation group MOVE,
which was the victim of a notorious police bombing in 1985. Asili’s film is
an endlessly generative work of politics, humor, and philosophy,
referencing the legacies of the Black Arts Movement and featuring Black
authors and radicals, members of MOVE, as well as poets Ursula Rucker and
Sonia Sanchez. An NYFF58 selection. A Grasshopper Film release. Note: Films
are available in the U.S. and U.S. territories only. Users may have up to
two registered devices. Learn more in our FAQ.
