Out of The Box for September: Amy Yoes, Equator

The culmination of a two-year residency in our Film/Video Studio, Amy Yoes’s Equator illustrates her interest in architectural space and its details. A simple vocabulary of geometric shapes is given life through richly layered stop-motion animation that continually builds and collapses upon itself. An equally dense and complex soundtrack, made from found and thrifted everyday objects, gives voice to the unfolding landscape.

Watch the film for free through September 30.

"It quietly but pointedly interrogates the notion of victimhood, while tacitly letting a damning essay on Iranian gender politics and hierarchies emerge through the words of his subjects."—Variety
