For the ninth collaboration with Berlinale Forum / Forum Expanded, we continue to explore what lies beyond the screen by shifting our inquiry from one filmmaker’s practice to processes of making films collectively. We take cues from social, feminist, ecological, aesthetic and political movements that rethought the models of organising around that which concerns them.
Tracing models of co-operations and self-organisations among oppressed classes, castes and communities, the exhibition and sessions of daily Baithaks Our Daughters Shall Inherit The Wealth Of Our Stories performatively unpacks the practice of the first feminist film collective from India – the Yugantar Film Collective.
Our Daughters Shall Inherit The Wealth Of Our Stories manifests spatially in the form of a convivial cinema appreciation, exhibition and discursive space, that hosts films and people that resonate with the spirit of the collective alongside a constellation of stories, contextual information, and artistic echoes. The project emphasises Yugantar’s ecology of vision by accommodating further mediations and entanglements in a program that extends the duration of the films through other creative productions in performance, literature, theory, as well as in the reality of SAVVY’s neighbourhood and the larger professional community of Berlin.
