ANALOGUE RESILIENCE: FILM LABS GATHERING May 25-30 2023 in Toronto
We are on the road! Iris Film Collective members Alex MacKenzie, Amanda Thomson, Lindsay McIntyre and Zoe Kirk-Gushowaty are attending the Film Labs Gathering, organized by LIFT this year in Toronto, an every-few years meetup of analogue film labs from across the globe designed to create spaces and situations for artist-run labs, collectives, and filmmakers to share with and learn from each other through collaboration and conversation.
The gathering is centered around the theme Analogue Resilience. Analogue, to invoke the material qualities of the film medium, as well as an embodied way of working. Resilience, in reference to the continued vitality of this form of filmmaking; and to the community of people whom filmmaking survives through, who continue this practice in contexts and locations in which they encounter resistance.
