Untitled, by Jim Hodges, Carlos Marques da Cruz and Encke King, eschews a linear narrative to introduce a fractious timeline, moving from the sublime to the tragic and back again. By juxtaposing mainstream network news, activist footage, artists' works, and popular entertainment from the last turbulent decades, Untitled references regimes of power that precipitated a generation of AIDS and queer activism and continues today with international struggles for freedom and expression. Screening continuously at the MSMGF Networking Zone during the conference.
