Bill Stamets is a Chicago-based freelance writer, photographer, and filmmaker. He has been filming what he describes as “a miscellany of civic occasions where Americans make sense of power” since 1976. His Super 8 films document Chicago’s many protests, parades, and political campaigns, both mainstream and marginal. CFA is home to Bill’s reversal originals, and we have worked in recent years to digitize and preserve his work. This program debuts six films that are newly accessible through these efforts.
Presented with Bill Stamets in person for a post-screening conversation. Presented with the University of Chicago Film Studies Center.
