Ruth Beckermann Retrospective
Close Up Cinema, London
September 2017
Curator: Colm McAuliffe
The very first UK retrospective on the films of Ruth Beckermann, curated and introduced by Colm McAuliffe with support of the Austrian Cultural Forum London and Sixpackfilm. Born in Vienna in 1952, Beckermann has been creating essay films and documentaries for 40 years and is well known internationally as one of Austria’s most courageous and spirited filmmakers. This programme explores the work of a director equally suspicious of closed narrative forms and linear views of history and memory.
