Film | Once Upon a Time in Harlem (2026): Culture Documentary (+ Filmmaker Discussion)


A decade after his death, genre-defying filmmaker William Greaves has one last trick up his sleeve with what he considered the most important event he captured on film: a 1972 party he engineered with the living luminaries of the Harlem Renaissance. For four hours, this extraordinary group--many of whom had not seen each other in fifty years--reminisced, critiqued, argued, laughed, and drank while wrestling with their place in a rapidly shifting cultural landscape. Shot on 16mm film, newly restored and now directed by Greaves's son David, this landmark film is at once a self-exploration and an inquiry into the heart of the critical mass of energy called the Harlem Renaissance. William Greaves's intent was not only to document these artists and intellectuals as they spoke about their lives and work. but also to plumb the meaning of the extraordinary creative period in which they lived to help us better understand how culture has been passed on from one generation to another and the role that the artist plays in keeping it alive. Director: William Greaves, David Greaves Followed by a conversation between filmmakers David Greaves and Liani Greaves and Racquel Gates, Associate Professor, Film and Media Studies.

Inside a small judicial scrivener's office at the Seongnam Branch of Suwon District Court, people arrive daily carrying the weight of debt.

Film | The Return of Martin Guerre (1982): French Historical Drama (+ Discussion)


The Return of Martin Guerre is based on a case of imposture in 16th century France involving Martin Guerre, a French peasant and ex-soldier. The movie is rooted in the documentary record of this celebrated trial that raises questions concerning identity, deception, and marriage. The case became the basis for historian Natalie Zemon Davis's influential book reconstructing village life in early modern France, demonstrating how legal archives can provide rare insight into the social relationships, values, and everyday experiences of ordinary people whose voices are seldom preserved in the historical record. Director: Daniel Vigne Cast: Gérard Depardieu, Nathalie Baye Screening followed by discussion with Shanny Peer and Jeffrey Freedman. Please review the venue's access requirements.
