Palita Chunsaengchan and Elizabeth Wijaya started this webinar series in 2021 with hope to generate connections and conversations among practitioners, scholars, artists, public audience and stakeholders in Asian cinema. This time, they are eager to revisit the concept of labor, archive, and archiving practices in the many formations and revivals of Southeast Asian Cinema. Their next webinar on November 14th will be about the non-institutional archival labour. More information will be available soon.
In the evening of October 17, the Archives on Screen, Twin Cities (Maggie Hennefeld and Michelle Baroody) and Palita Chunsaengchan (Southeast Asian Cinema and Its Diaspora) bring Lino Brocka’s MANILA IN THE CLAWS OF LIGHT to Trylon Cinema. The screening starts at 7 pm. Follow the link to book your ticket in advance:
