FILM SCREENING: “Green Bridges, Transient Walls”

September 29 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm

Free

ONE NIGHT ONLY: 🎥 FILM SCREENING 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM “Green Bridges, Transient Walls” at an outdoor lot at the corner of Commerce St. and Roberts St. in Second Ward. Co-presented by Aurora Picture Show with the Houston Climate Justice Museum, and curated by Salome Kokoladze, this selection of contemporary films was inspired by questioning the infrastructures put in place to promote or prevent movement. “Green bridges” are typically covered with native vegetation to guide animals safely across highways. “Transient walls” refers to the recent surge in border wall constructions around the world. Featuring short works by artists including Miguel Angel Ríos, Baba Hillman, and Art Jones, the program leans into the absurd to investigate links between freedom of movement, inter-species relationships, and environmental and political crises.

Attendees are encouraged to bring their own blankets and lawn chairs for this free, outdoor screening.

RECEPTION FOLLOWING THE FILM SCREENINGS: Houston Climate Justice Museum (3308 Garrow St., Houston 77003).

IN CASE OF INCLEMENT WEATHER: This film screening will take place on Saturday, September 30 at 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM.
