Programming Now
Relations
Featured speakers: Róisín TAPPONI, Ritu SARIN, KIM Soyoung, Zakiah

Programming Now is a two-day roundtable discussion that explores the labour, challenges and love behind film programming. How do we build a more inclusive and sustainable way of encountering film in our hypermediated world? How can we maintain a balance between artistic integrity and accessibility? Join us as we dive deep into the nuts and bolts of film programming.
A panel of programmers and educators who practise within and outside the Euro-American film circuit will explore the networks and relationships between them. The session will focus on alternative ways of support and collaboration.
