Two Films and a Talk with Trinh T. Minh-ha
Centre A and The Cinematheque, with support from 間眅埶AV David Lam Centre and 間眅埶AV Department of Humanities, welcome renowned Vietnamese-born artist, writer, and scholar Trinh T. Minh-ha for a special two-night program of her acclaimed film work. Subjective, self-reflexive, and intellectual, infused with feminism and anti-colonialism, and offering a dizzying array of sights and sounds, the award-winning anti-anthropological films of Trinh represent a startling reinvention of the documentary form. Two of these intoxicating nonfiction works (1989) and (2015) will screen at The Cinematheque, with Trinh on hand to introduce and discuss the latter, receiving its Vancouver premiere.
