LA Rebellion Film Movement
Advertisement
Explore how two landmark LA Rebellion films—"Passing Through" (directed by Larry Clark, 1977) and "Brick by Brick" (directed by Shirikiana Aina, 1982)—echo the themes central to "Rashid Johnson: A Poem for Deep Thinkers," including identity, race, cultural memory, and the emotional weight carried across generations. Johnson describes his art as “a space for contemplation and to investigate freedom and will,” a lens that deepens the films’ explorations of Black life and resistance.
The screening will be followed by a conversation with Devon "Vonnie" Smith, Professor of Practice in Production at Southern Methodist University, and Screenwriter and Producer Michelle Glasby-Millington, Professor of Practice in Screenwriting also at SMU.
This event is free and open to the public. Digital presentation courtesy of the UCLA Film & Television Archive.
