Screenings
Dallas, 2019 is an intimate, experiential and observational five-part series that studies and reveals how citizens are socialized, shaped and formed within a society.

Directors Spotlight
Darius Clark Monroe
Artist
Monroe’s documentary and fictional films surface intimate, interior lives and under-acknowledged histories. He is interested in human behavior within the many structures of society’s laws, rules, and mores and how they influence both a public and private sense of self—“pulling at the interior life and bringing it to the surface.” His works include the four-part short film series Racquet, which meditates on tennis players and their communities; the short documentary Black 14, about the media coverage of college football players at the University of Wyoming who protested against racial injustice in 1969; and the autobiographical documentary feature Evolution of a Criminal, which examines the aftereffects of a bank robbery.
