Description

Making documentary films as part of activist and feminist movements, Barbara Meter pushed the cinematic medium forward through her distinctive way of repurposing documents and audio recordings using an innovative, masterful application of optical printing techniques. After many years of work, the Eye Filmmuseum in Amsterdam has preserved Meter’s films in all their delicacy and complexity. Curated by Mónica Savirón.
