Lucid Intervals
How can cinema help us build different connections with our environment?
About Lucid Intervals
Often intuitively, the films shown explore new ways of thinking about the relationship between humans and non-humans, inter-species connections, mythologies, and the natural world. Held each month under a different theme, these screenings are followed by discussions with speakers, researchers, filmmakers, and the audience about how these films help change our perspectives.
The series of screenings has been curated by Rasha Salti, independent curator, and Jean-Michel Frodon, film critic, with Vassilis Oikonomopoulos, Artistic Director, LUMA Arles, Martin Guinard, Curator, LUMA Arles, and Salma Mochtari, Researcher, LUMA Arles.
Where does the title “Lucid Intervals” come from? Why were these films chosen for screening? What ideas do they want the public to take away from these film screenings and discussions? Find out in the video!
