(NAME-MCE) Different from What? Film and Video Festival

[Anselmo Villanueva]

Different from What? Film and Video Festival

This film festival hosted by the Equity Alliance at ASU will be held
in Tempe, AZ, January 29–31, 2010 and explores varied perspectives of
ability and disability.  This festival explores the expression and
construction of ability and disability from multiple perspectives.  In
what ways do our cultural practices reflect conventions and
expectations that make some differences visible while obscuring
others?  Who and what conspires to compose these defining images and
in what ways are they avoided, resisted, negotiated, and challenged?
Participants will be intrigued by this mélange of film, conversation,
and celebration of the differences that punctuate our community
discourses.

Submissions are being accepted in the categories of drama, comedy,
documentary, animation, and experimental.
