Rose Hill

Step into cinema history where Jonas Mekas and fellow rebels founded a sanctuary for experimental film in 1961. The Co-op still screens rare 16mm works you literally cannot see anywhere else: no streaming, no digital, just flickering celluloid and visionary art.

Liz Roberts' three-decade retrospective spans 16mm, VHS, and digital works that wrestle with memory, repair, and the ghosts of friends who reappear across time. Her early pieces still crackle with unexpected energy, while recent films dig into what it means to resolve the past: personal, familial, structural.

Watch experimental films that are literally fading away. This one-night-only program screens rare celluloid prints, some deteriorating and near extinction, with a live score and post-film conversation.
