Join us for an intimate communing with filmmaker Ingrid Raphaël where we’ll dive into their making process informed by their understanding of immigrant relating, rooted in ways Black folks experience time: thus how we tell stories & relate to memory work. Guided by how this bleeds into film ethics, writing, process, and mapping: participants are encouraged to bring a film idea they’re working on, sitting with, or digesting. This lecture-workshop will move folks to consider their idea, build out a methodology that works for them, and ways to build upon an ecosystem of makers here in Philly.

This event will feature select excerpts of Raphaël’s recent cinematic works.

**EVENT FLOW:

DOORS @ 4:30PM

ABOUT THE ARTIST: Ingrid Raphaël:

Ingrid Raphaël is a filmmaker, educator and multi-disciplinary artist whose work explores image making, oscillations between alienation and belonging, folktale as memory, and dance codes as containers for – and manifestations of — Black-futures-making.

They co-founded a nomadic microcinema, NO EVIL EYE CINEMA and co-designed the alternative film school FILM FUTURA.

Their upcoming film SILK imagines a future with memory loss, portals, environmental degradation, renewal, and two unlikely friends on a quest for truth. As a documentary filmmaker, they co-directed They Won’t Call It Murder: available on Vimeo’s Shorts Staff Picks, and other short video essays like MOVING BODY, Grief, and An Ode to Cbus, Ohio.
