Poster for Mujeres de la Revolución Mexicana

2009 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Many women participated in the Mexican Revolution and were erased from history. Their names do not appear as the heroines they were, alongside the most important leaders of the heroic deed. As ideologues, they played an important role from their trench of activists, teachers, journalists and messengers. The documentary brings names like Carmen Serdán, Hermila Galindo, Dolores Jiménez Muro, Elvia Carrillo Puerto, Elena Arizmendi, Sara Pérez de Madero, to the front and recognizes their value in the formation of a nation.

Poster for Iris

1971 · ★ 6.0 (1)

Women's bodies are presented as ambiguous erotic landscapes, sometimes classically baroque, sometimes cubistic visions in a distorted reflection, depending on the camera angle and shot size. Finally the female flesh frees itself to the accompaniment of electronic smacking noises and, ignoring all gender borderlines, unites with itself in Cronenbergesque growths.

Poster for From Spikes to Spindles

1976 · ★ 0.0 (0)

This raw, gutsy portrait of New York's Chinatown captures the early days of an emerging consciousness in the community. We see a Chinatown rarely depicted, a vibrant community whose young and old join forces to protest police brutality and hostile real estate developers. With bold strokes, it paints an overview of the community and its history, from the early laborers driving spikes into the transcontinental railroad to the garment workers of today.
