SHADOWPLAY: Women in Experimental Animation (Church of Film)

A century of women in experimental animation, from the silent era to the present! It’s a tour of radical animation experiments, including the paper cut-outs of Lotte Reniger’s fairy tales, the jazz-inspired visual music of Mary Ellen Bute, the pinscreen inventions of co-creator Claire Parker, and beyond into the surreal work of more modern animators!

SHADOWPLAY is a curated survey of the contributions women have made to the field of experimental animation and visuals from the inception of the cinematic arts.
