" There’s nothing new under the sun, but there are new suns."
Octavia Butler
When the world is on fire, it takes visionaries, mavericks and dreamers to see another future through the smoke. Curated by archive activists Invisible Women the archive-activists of Invisible Women, this program brings together historical and contemporary works by female, trans and non-binary filmmakers that show speculative visions of the future. Exploring resonant themes such as reactionary politics, corporate overreach and environmental collapse, these films deploy anarchic humour and extraordinary images to demonstrate how collective action, Afro-futurism, eco-feminism and queer liberation can generate hope even in the darkest of moments.
