CAMRA presents RESTITUTION CINEMA!
Restitution Cinema is a film program that considers the impossibility of repair, and the traction and possibility in reaching for it anyways. It is about the many errant pathways towards recovery, removed from the idealism of a pure precolonial, pre-contact past, and rooted in the material, psychic and embodied ways of restoring our cultural endowments in the current anti-colonial terrain.
