Something In the Air

While seasoned directors were releasing cinematic milestones in 1968 (think Kubrick and his Space Odyssey), filmmakers all over the world were seizing their 16mm cameras to document the changes happening around them, and also to hint at those changes still to come.

This programme brings together short films that capture the spirit of ‘68 and is a rare occasion to see Chantal Akerman’s debut, the feminist pamphlet Saute ma ville, and Agnès Varda’s powerful documentary Black Panthers, censored by French television at the time.
