25 Films For 25 Years! EPFC’s Online Anniversary Celebration!

Film 15: Origins (2011), selected by Eve LaFountain

“Co creating and co teaching Origins in the spring of 2011 was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. It taught me how to teach from my own perspective and intuition and I still draw from this course today. All of the works our students made were breathtaking and brilliant. We had our big annex space and many students made expanded cinema installations. This collection is the more "single channel" works that were compiled onto a beautiful dvd collection. The course explored the Indigenous living histories of Los Angeles and our own personal origin stories. It seems fitting for Thanksgiving, remember our Indigenous history, give thanks for what we have.”
