  • The Sky After Rain (Payam Feili)

  • The Gloria of Your Imagination

    New York based film artist Jennifer Reeves, known for her 16mm experiments, revisits “Three Approaches to Psychotherapy” (1965), which portrays Gloria Szymanski in sessions with three male therapists. Through found footage and tactile interventions on film, Reeves reframes the material into an empowering portrait. By adding home movies, newsreels, and advertisements, she situates Gloria’s story in context, exposing the unequal power dynamics behind the original film. Gloria emerges not as a case study but as a complex, vivid woman whose openness about her fears, desires, and contradictions still resonates today.

  • The Sky After Rain (Shyla Hope)
