Visiting Filmmaker - William Raban

Date: 26th February 2008
Time: 5pm
Venue: Room Cos 117 (Cambridge)

William Raban is an internationally renowned experimental and documentary filmmaker. In his earliest work, dating from the 1970s, Raban often explored aspects such as performance and mutli-projection, which produced a reflexive space that directly engaged the audience. In his later films there is a political and sociological critique that is more explicit. Raban's Thames and East London films represent locations that he has often returned to. A DVD of his films was released by the BFI in 2003.

The programme included the two-screen ANGLES OF INCIDENCE (1973); SUNDIAL (1992); A13 (1994); ISLAND RACE (1996); and CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE (2004), all introduced by William Raban himself.

Generously supported by a grant from Anglia Ruskin University's Arts Council.
