Categorie:
To celebrate the London Film Festival screening of EXPRMNTL, a documentary about the first experimental film festival, founded in 1949, we reflect on where we have got to in the intervening years. Is there still a place for experimental film festivals? What are they for? What is the relationship between the mainstream and the fringe in contemporary film culture? To discuss these and other questions Experimenta programmer and director of LUX Benjamin Cook is joined by the directors of two of the foremost 'experimental' film festivals Amy Fung, artistic director of Toronto’s Images Festival and Peter Taylor, director of Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival.
