Screenings

Goshogaoka & Untitled (Ghost)

  • This is a past program

In Sharon Lockhart’s Goshogaoka, a subtle and multi-layered social portrait filmed in Japan, the exercise routines of a girls’ basketball team digress into distinct studies. Elad Lassry’s Untitled (Ghost) investigates the tradition of “spirit” or “ghost” photography, seen by some as evidence that photosensitive film can capture the immaterial, such as apparitions and auras. (S. Lockhart, Goshogaoka, 1997, 16mm, 63 min.; E. Lassry, Untitled (Ghost), 2011, 35mm film, silent 18 min.)
