A rare chance to catch some of Henry Hills' key works on 16mm, and to hear from Hills himself.

For over thirty years Henry Hills has pursued a restless, freewheeling and very personal form of cinema, one that has taken him from Manhattan cut-ups (SSS, Money) to Indonesian fever-dreams (Bali Mecanique, Goa Lawah). A regular collaborator with John Zorn and other members of the New York improv scene, Hills’ own love of jazz and dance are evident from the fractured rhythms of his editing. This special event is a rare chance to catch some of his key works on 16mm, and to hear from Hills himself in conversation with Vivienne Dick. Sidewalk Poetry is presented in association with Frontiers Festival, which takes place across Birmingham from 22 March-5 April and 2-8 June.

Dir. Henry Hills
