“Precarity in Film: Experimental Ecologies” features experimental, alternative, independent, and underground films from Latin America, the Caribbean, and Spain that engage with ecological, racial, and material precarity. The works selected depict and distort, exhibit and expose the extreme conditions facing communities and landscapes of their home territories, as well as the precarious quality of the production and preservation of experimental film.

Filmmakers and artists (some in person): Valentina Alvarado (Spain/Venezuela), Gabrielle Civil (United States), Patricia Ferreira Pará Yxapy (Paraguay/Brazil), Sofía Gallisá Muriente (Puerto Rico), Narcisa Hirsch (Argentina), Claudia Joskowicz (Bolivia/United States), Azucena Losana (Mexico), Rocío Mesa (Spain/United States), Everlane Moraes (Brazil), Tomas Rautenstrauch (Argentina), Adriana Rondón Rivero (Venezuela/United States) and Malena Szlam (Chile/Canada).

This event is curated by Noraedén Mora Méndez, doctoral candidate in Comparative Studies in Literature and Culture, and Erin Graff Zivin, professor of Spanish and Portuguese and Comparative Literature, in collaboration with Los Angeles Filmforum.
