If we shift our perspective, to no longer assume that Hollywood and the West is at the centre of film history, a different picture begins to emerge both on and off screen.

Expect a series of short provocations from guest speakers including Jemma Desai (Founder of I am Dora), The Final Girls, Sally Griffith (Anim18), Dr Shawn Sobers (Associate Professor of Lens-based Media at UWE) and writer/curator Karen Alexander. This is a space for conversations about individual challenges and best practice in this area, navigating how we might collectively go about reframing film heritage in the context of BFI2022.

This is a BFI Film Audience Network event co-presented with Film Hubs North and South West and support from the National Lottery and STUDIOCANAL.
