The BFC/A is co-sponsoring Costa’s visit to Bloomington for his retrospective, which will take place from October 6 – 8. The retrospective includes the films Down to Earth (1984); Ossos (1997); his complete shorts from 2001-2007; Colossal Youth (2007); The Blood (1989); In Vanda’s Room (2000); Ne Change Rien (2009); and Where Does Your Hidden Smile Lie? (2001).
The lecture and the screenings are free, and open to the public.
The Black Film Center/Archive at Indiana University was established in 1981 as the first archival repository dedicated to collecting, preserving, and making available historically and culturally significant films by and about black people. The BFC/A's primary objectives are to promote scholarship on black film and to serve as an open resource for scholars, researchers, students, and the general public; to encourage creative film activity by independent black filmmakers; and to undertake and support research on the history, impact, theory, and aesthetics of black film traditions.
