IFI & EXPERIMENTAL FILM CLUB: FREE RADICALS – A HISTORY OF EXPERIMENTAL FILM

Director: Pip Chodorov

82 minutes, France, 2012, D-Cinema


Director Pip Chodorov will be present to introduce and discuss his film.

“The artists and poets of cinema since before World War I have always been free radicals, crazy about filmmaking and pushing the art form in radical new directions” Pip Chodorov

This feature-length documentary provides a vivid, eye-opening, and appropriately personal introduction to one of the most important, yet perpetually marginalised, realms of filmmaking: avant-garde cinema. It features rare and intimate interviews with key figures (including Stan Brakhage, Jonas Mekas, Peter Kubelka) and excerpts from some rarely screened masterworks.

Pip Chodorov can be considered among the most knowledgeable and passionate celebrators of the avant-garde and we are delighted that he will be present to introduce and discuss his film.
