MORE ABOUT THIRD RUN CINEMA
The pandemic left us exhausted by staring into our small screens, scrolling Netflix, then Stan, then Disney+, then back to Netflix, finding ourselves still somehow unable to choose, bored by everything. Third Run Cinema is an attempt to heal our relationship to screen culture by providing a curated, social experience of The Movies.
Third Run Cinema is also an attempt to move ~experimental film out of an art gallery context — a setting which makes these kinds of film seem lofty & inaccessible, like something you should have Important Thoughts about, or at least need to be in a Serious Mood to approach — and to instead put them into a relaxed, fun bar context. This is because the best way to come to love & understand experimental film (ie. to raise your Viewing Comprehension) is to just to watch a lot of it & have a good time, rather than worrying about whether or not you “get” it. Our motto in this regard is : THERE IS NOTHING TO GET ! THERE ARE ONLY THINGS TO ENJOY !
Third Run Cinema takes its name from the sociological concept of the “Third Place” and the small, rural “terza vizione” cinemas that thrived in Italy between the 1950s-1980s.
Presented by Canberra Art Biennial in collaboration with You Are Here. Hannah de Feyter, Curator, is an alumni of You Are Here’s Cahoots program. Third Run Cinema was originally programmed as part of Cahoots Lab 2023.
Ticketing revenue will be used to support the future of the Cahoots program, allowing more Canberra artists access to this unique development opportunity.
