Film Screening of Dislocated and Ordinary

Join the artist behind Memories of Movement on view at MAG, for a one-time screening of a film ensemble Dislocated and Ordinary, including the Rochester premiere of Kicking the Clouds (2022), which was presented at this year’s Sundance Film Festival and the Berlinale Shorts Program.

After the screening, Hopinka will engage in a discussion moderated by MAG Assistant Curator of Media Arts, Almudena Escobar López, followed by a Q&A.

Included with museum admission.

Dislocated and Ordinary features four titles that exemplify Hopinka’s poetic visual language. They are a form of political affirmation of contemporary Indigeneity, and also offer a space of encounter and inquiry for the non-Indigenous. Read the descriptions of the individual films here.
