SUMMARY:Artistic Differences:  MEANS OF ORDINARY DISRUPTION

Co-curator Cíntia Gil and UnionDocs are delighted to join hands with Taiwan International Documentary Festival while they are ON TOUR to present a stellar and urgent program: MEANS OF ORDINARY DISRUPTION. Featuring the astonishing DRY GROUND BURNING (MATO SECO EM CHAMAS)\, from Joana Pimenta and Adirley Queirós with HSU Hui-jus contemplative Temporary\, we’ll stage a screening and in-depth online Study Group that will explore a host of questions with our growing international community in a dynamic format. \nJoin us in asking how territories can carry the history of the management and segregation of bodies\, knowledge\, resources\, words\, imaginations\, and fundamentally reveal modes of societal organization by watching these two films together that disrupt such histories\, and reveal radical\, or alternative forms of territoriality. \nIn HSU Hui-ju’s TEMPORARY\, an abandoned factory is populated by the gestures and presence of precarious laborers and their particular form of making sense of place and time. While in Joana Pimenta’s and Adirley Queirós’ DRY GROUND BURNING\, sisters Léa and Chitara build rule and meaning anew in their area of Ceilândia\, in the outskirts of the Brazilian capital. \nWhat can we learn from this gang of women who own the night and drill oil from their backyard to build a grassroots political movement? \nThese films conjure an ethics of inevitability\, an inevitable power of mass disruption. \nSign up today to join us\, discuss and think through these themes together.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_separator color=”white”][vc_column_text] \nFILM PROGRAM \n[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”white”][vc_custom_heading text=”Dry Ground Burning (Mato Seco Em Chamas) by Joana Pimenta & Adirley Queirós” font_container=”tag:h1|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_custom_heading text=”153 minutes | Portuguese| 2022 |” font_container=”tag:p|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text] \n“I was remembering the time… That I got wrapped up in some crazy shit with my sister Chitara. My sister made history in Sol Nascente. That was in 2019. I’d just got out of prison for drug charges. My sister asked me to be a part of this crazy scheme she was caught up in. She got a hold of a map of underground oil pipes. She got it and then… she bought a lot in Sol Nascente. The oil pipes ran right under her land. She started making a lot of money with that. Her\, Andreia\, China…They made a lot of money. So I started working with them. She took me to the lot\, where she built a huge structure. Really huge\, it was crazy\, dope as hell. She taught me how it all worked…how to get the oil from underground\, and turn it into gasoline\, and all that shit…And she set up a deal with the motoboys\, they would buy gasoline from her… she refined the gasoline there\, and they bought it off her… Besides the motoboys\, Chitara also had a spot at the P.Norte market a stand where she sold her gasoline. And a bunch of other shit. Chitara also got mixed up in politics. She made history… We had Sol Nascente on lock\, we fucked things up. We really fucked things up.” \n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Léa tells the story of the Gasolineiras de Kebradas\, as it echoes through the walls of Colmeia\,the women’s prison of Brasilia\, Federal District\, Brazil.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_custom_heading text=”Temporary 臨時工 by HSU Hui-ju” font_container=”tag:h1|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_custom_heading text=”25 minutes | 2017″ font_container=”tag:p|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]HSU took a non-traditional approach to make this documentary. She hired three real-life temporary workers to play themselves in an abandoned factory\, which is both their stage and where they build a temporary home. They live on the edge in between the real and virtual world\, between city and wilderness\, and between family life and homelessness.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_separator color=”white”][vc_column_text] \nSTUDY GROUP — ONLINE – JAN 7 \n[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”white”][vc_column_text]We’re thrilled to come together for a Study Group Session structured around these incredible films! Like a kind of grassroots book club\, but for documentary art\, it’s all about sparking discussion and deeper investigation\, through reading\, listening and responding in small\, self-organized groups that together form a larger collective experience. \nYou will get access to the film program through our Membership Hub a few days in advance.
