The program juxtaposes five films that about anonymity and labor, from silent films that show the invisible labor of housemaids and film editors to films that highlight the erased labor of decolonial struggle.
Film curators Michelle Baroody and Maggie Hennefeld join moderator Patrice Petro for a discussion of their program “Archives of Anonymous Labor: From Farce to Liberation.”
In October 2025, Archives on Screen will highlight the work of Ukrainian-Armenian filmmaker Sergei Parajanov. SHADOWS OF FORGOTTEN ANCESTORS will screen at Trylon Cinema and THE COLOR OF POMEGRANATES will screen at Macalester College. Follow Archives on Screen on social media for more information.
