SUMMARY:Screening of Confederitis\, A Film by Rbt. Sps. & Jillian McManemin
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday\, May 30\, 7 PM EST for an online screening of Confederitis\, a collaborative film by Rbt. Sps. & Jillian McManemin\, followed by a brief Q&A with both artists\, \nConfederitis is a collaborative experimental film by Robert Spees and Jillian McManemin that melds documentary footage of rural Kentucky and Tennessee with narrative\, karaoke\, poetry and slapstick puppetry. The film follows Phocian and Faith (played by the filmmakers)\, as they form a queer love cult and distort Confederate symbology. Confederitis was shot on multiple formats and film stocks including Super 8mm\, 16mm\, Hi-8\, Betamax\, VHS\, & HD. Confederitis is a diaristic dream state that meditates on the impotence of escapism in our current political climate. \nConfederitis has been presented by Anthology Film Archives\, The Istanbul Experimental Film Festival\, The Slipper Room\, Spalding University (Louisville\, Kentucky)\, Centro Provincial de Artes Plásticas y Diseño (Santiago\, Cuba)\, and received a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Award to be screened at Circe Theater (Tbilisi\, Georgia) in January 2019. “A Prelude to a Film”\, a performance that incorporated early Confederitis footage\, was presented by Rbt. & Jillian at the Bureau of General Services—Queer Division in 2015. \nRun time: 70 minutes \nThis event is free\, but the artists and the Bureau ask attendees to make a donation of $10 or more to NYC’s LGBT Community Center if you have the means to do so. \nRSVP ON EVENTBRITE IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE LINK TO THE ZOOM MEETING (REQUIRED).\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
