Archive Project Event - “Queer Cinema of San Francisco State University”
“Queer Cinema of San Francisco State University”
Co-Presented by Queer Cinema Project
May 4, 2021, 6p.m.
One of the goals of the recently founded Archive Project in SF State University’s School of Cinema is to explore the school’s rich legacy of films that have been created by student and faculty of the past and present. That is why on Tuesday, May 4th at 6 PM, The Archive Project will be putting on a special one-time only screening of queer cinema made by students throughout SFState University’s long history. The presented short films showcase a variety of experiences and genres that speak to the complex history of LGBTQIA+ culture that can be found in San Francisco just by looking at artists who have gone through the university’s doors.

Dyketactics: 1974, 4 minutes, Barbara Hammer
Dear Rock: 1993, 18 minutes, Jack Walsh
Sambal Belacan in San Francisco: 1997, 25 minutes, Madeleine Lim
