Delicate Translation is a series of short film/video screenings featuring various young, immigrant filmmakers curated by Yuchi Ma at the invitation of Prof. Michael Luo. The series will also include her own award-winning short film, Red Threads.
Delicate Translation, tracing one’s home and experiences of transnational displacement, practices a language that resists articulation in the standard Western vernacular. Rooted within the displaced body itself, each artist manifests a personal language, searching and longing through digital vessels, screen and “windows”, and metatextual recalling to a non-place we know as home. In this screening, the memory images unravel, resisting dominant history and conventional narrative form.
Doors at 6:30PM, screenings will start at 7:00PM.
This event is sponsored by the Media Arts & Culture Department and the Remsen Bird Fund
This event will be free and open to the public, but space is limited so please RSVP here.
