Pratibha Parmar: A Place of Rage Screening | EYE Cinema

TULCA presents a screening of Pratibha Parmar’s award-winning documentary A Place of Rage (1991), followed by a discussion and Q&A hosted by Gavin Murphy.
A Place of Rage is an exuberant, award-winning documentary film by Pratibha Parmar which made its debut in 1991, yet its content is still one of the richest and most cherished and includes rare interviews with Angela Davis, June Jordan and Alice Walker. A celebration of the contributions and achievements of prominent African American women. Within the context of civil rights, Black Power, lesbian and gay rights and the feminist movement, the trio reassesses how women like Rosa Parks and Fannie Lou Hamer revolutionized American society and the world generally.
The discussion and Q&A will be hosted by Gavin Murphy, lecturer in Art History and Critical Theory at the Atlantic Technological University and Programme Chair of its MA in Creative Practice.
Pratibha Parmar is a filmmaker whose ground breaking films centre marginal stories in bold creative ways. She has dedicated her career to illuminate stories erased from dominant cinematic narratives. Her oeuvre spans experimental shorts, activist documentaries and feature-length works. Her cinematic language operates as an act of visual justice, a queer diasporic strategy for generating networks of solidarity, art, and pleasure.
