A playful meditation on memory and forgetting inspired by the encounters that led to a collection of business cards.
Lynne Sachs has created one of the most distinctive filmographies over the course of a more than 30-year career. Moving between the essay film, documentary, and experimental film, Sachs examines social and political issues as well as questioning perceived reality and memory. Every Contact Leaves a Trace follows Sachs on a years-long journey to connect with people whose business cards she has saved. Instead of a “where are they now” film, it tracks Sachs’s own journey as an artist and the many paths she has taken in her career. Sachs was a recipient of a 2018–19 Wexner Center Artist Residency Award in Film/Video. Join Sachs for a Q&A following the screening. (83 mins., DCP)

In the words of Cinéseries’ members: Cinéseries is a student-led group that organizes monthly screenings in collaboration with the Wexner Center for the Arts. We aim to offer a space for students and the community to engage with film and expanded cinema from makers of a variety of backgrounds. We aspire to create an environment conducive to critical engagement by inviting filmmakers to showcase work that takes risks, challenges norms, and opens a conversation by devoting to a wide range of artist-centered and independent media.
