[Commlist] Call for Short Films to Exhibit/Screen: With What We Have Left/*: Film Making and Fashion’

Call for Short Films to Exhibit/Screen

Screening Title - ‘*/With What We Have Left/*: Film Making and Fashion’. 
*//*

We are looking for short film works by film makers, researchers, and 
practitioners for a screening event to be held in London on Thursday 
16^th of March, 2023. This is not a conference; it is a meeting of film 
makers and researchers with their eyes on fashion. We would love to see 
your work!

Our focus is on short films which explore the intersection of 
sustainability, politics, clothing subgroups and identity with the 
practices of making, be it, in a textural exchange, the detail of a 
subversive buttonhole, or the weave of an unexpected new fabric. We are 
interested in the impenetrable nature of industrial material waste and 
the ingenuity of artisan craft, the clothing of the elderly and the 
style of cinema and are looking for films that question and represent 
sustainability, documentaries that explore the love of a single garment 
and which show accessories in another light.

The programme will be introduced by Fiona Curran and is supported by the 
University of Gloucestershire.The Screening will take place in London at 
Close Up Cinema, Sacker St, London https://www.closeupfilmcentre.com/ 
<https://www.closeupfilmcentre.com/> on Thursday March 16^th , 2023, 
followed by networking in the bar.

Please] send a link to your film and a short abstract of 500 words or 
less, to Fiona Curran. (fcurran /at/ glos.ac.uk) <mailto:(fcurran /at/ glos.ac.uk)>by 
the deadline of January 31^st , 2023.
