Shulie

Slovenska premiera filma in predstavitev knjige Dialektike spola

Shulie (US, 1997, video, 36′ 38″, bp), zasnovan kot poklon, je igriva in izzivalna mešanica filmske lastnine. Subrin in njen kreativni sodelavec Kim Soss obudita malo znani dokumentaristični portret Shulamith Firestone, mlade študentke umetnosti v Chicagu, ki je čez nekaj let postala vidna figura feminizma drugega vala in avtorica radikalnega manifesta iz leta 1970, Dialektika spola – zagovor feministične revolucije. Z natančnimi postavitvami film izraža, tako pravi Subrin, »ostanke preteklosti« in odmeve tematik spola in razreda danes.

Projekciji sledi videopogovor z režiserko (v angleščini) ter pogovor s Katjo Čičigoj in Tanjo Rener o vplivni knjigi Shulamith Firestone Dialektika spola, letos prevedeni v slovenščino in izdani pri Založbi /*cf.

Vstopnice: 4 €

Soorganizacija: Mesto žensk, Založba /*cf., Kinoteka.

Elisabeth Subrin

Slovenian premiere of film and presentation of The Dialectic of Sex

Staging an extended act of homage, as well as a playful, provocative
confounding of filmic propriety, Subrin and her creative collaborator
Kim Soss resurrect Shulie (US, 1997, video, 36′ 38″, no
subtitles), a little-known 1967 documentary portrait of Shulamith
Firestone, a young Chicago art student, who, a few years later, would
become a notable figure in Second Wave feminism, and author of the
radical 1970 manifesto, The Dialectic of Sex: The Case for Feminist Revolution.
Through its meticulous staging, the film expresses in Subrin’s words,
“the residues of the past”, and the resonance of issues around gender
and class today.

The screening will be followed by a Skype talk with the director (in
English) and a discussion with Katja Čičigoj and Tanja Rener about
Shulamith Firestone’s influential work The Dialectic of Sex, translated
into Slovenian with the /*cf. publishing house in 2019.

Co-organised by: City of Women, Založba /*cf., Kinoteka.
