This summer, the National Museum of the Aftermath is presenting a four night film screening series. Join us for the final screening of the season, featuring Reginald Alan Hudlin’s Space Traders (1994) and William Greaves’ Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One (1968).
Space Traders
33m
With an angry dynamism, Hudlin offers a vision of aliens who demand America hands off its Black people to outer space so they may meet a new reality.
Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One
75m
In this one-of-a-kind fiction/documentary hybrid, the pioneering William Greaves presides over a beleaguered film crew in New York’s Central Park, leaving them to try to figure out what kind of movie they’re making. A couple enacts a breakup scenario over and over, a documentary crew films a crew filming the crew, locals wander casually into the frame: the project defies easy description. This wildly innovative sixties counterculture landmark remains one of the most tightly focused and insightful movies ever made about making movies.
This series is free and no registration required, seating is first come first served.
