Benjamin R. Taylor
Benjamin R. Taylor is an artist, the creative director of VISIONS and co-director of la lumière collective in Montréal. He enjoys sharing cinema that questions where and when images might be situated, that asks who is speaking, for whom and to whom. As creative director of VISIONS, he facilitates in-person screenings of work that straddles documentary and experimental cinema, that oscilates between the real and the dark glass through which we perceive it. As part of la lumière collective, he encourages cinema at a human scale, films and screenings that bear the marks of their makers and invite audiences into an environment that belongs to them. coups de coeur : PAYSAGE SOUS LES PAUPIÈRES 88-88 UN GRAND BRUIT THE PIMP AND HIS TROPHIES IN ORDER NOT TO BE HERE

The film is a poem of perception, one that unveils how contemporary Mexican femicide is linked to a patriarchal history with roots in deeper cultural constructs.
