Generations
Directed by Barbara Hammer and Gina CarducciGenerations is a 30 minute16mm film about mentoring and passing on the tradition of personal experimental film making. Barbara Hammer, 70 years old, hands the camera to Gina Carducci, a young queer filmmaker. Shooting during the last days of Astroland at Coney Island, New York, the filmmakers find that the inevitable fact of aging echoes in the architecture of the amusement park and in the emulsion of the film medium itself. Editing completely separately both picture and sound, the filmmakers join their films in the middle when they have finished making a true generational and experimental experiment.
