Join us for a screening of Season of Dying Water, 2022 (dur. 63min), directed by Svetlana Romanova and Chelsea Tuggle, Images of Siberia are often limited to exoticized portraits of rural communities living in harsh conditions, its residents often cast as provincial wanderers stuck in a different time.
Aiming to visually describe a more grounded contemporary reality, The Season of Dying Water argues that life in and around Yakutsk is more complicated. Inspired by Chris Marker’s 1957 travelogue film Lettre de Sibérie, Тарыҥ offers an update 65 years later.
With an introduction and post-screening Q+A with Helena Gouveia Monteiro.
Free, book via Eventbrite or come on the day subject to availability.
