The Agitated Gaze
An Approach to Chus Gutiérrez’s Cinema
March 1-19, 2021
Thanks to the alliance started with the Department of World Languages & Cultures at Ohio Wesleyan University, Mujeres de Cine is introduced to the American university environment with an activity focused on the filmography of the Spanish director Chus Gutiérrez.
Under the title The Agitated Gaze: An Approach to Chus Gutiérrez’s Cinema, a streaming activity will be developed that will feature the viewing of five representative titles by the director and a master class by Chus Gutiérrez for OWU students. This collaborative event aims at establishing an intergenerational dialogue between young American students and consecrated directors of our cinematography and offer the students of the Ohio Wesleyan University the possibility of talking with a renowned Spanish filmmaker, approaching her filmography through her voice and her work.
- Note: All films have English subtitles and will be available from March 1 to 19.
Mujeres de Cine At University is possible thanks to the support of the Ministry of Culture and Sports
