SUMMARY:Screening of Wind\, Tide & Oar followed by a discussion with Huw Wahl
DESCRIPTION:Join the Concordia Ethnography Lab and Maya Lamothe-Katrapani for another ethnographic film screening\, on April 8th. This time\, we’ll watch \nWind\, Tide & Oar: Encounters With Engineless Sailing (2024\, 84 min) by British cineast Huw Wahl.\n\n\nThe screening will be followed by a virtual Q&A with the director moderated by Polina Shubina\, member of the Montreal Waterways boating research group.\n\nABOUT THE FILM: \nWind\, Tide & Oar is a compelling exploration of engineless sailing\, shot on analogue film over three years. The film delves into the experiences of those who travel solely by harnessing the natural elements alone\, following a diverse array of traditional boats and uncovering the unique rhythms and motivations of engineless navigation. \nJourneying through rivers\, coastlines\, and open seas\, spanning the UK\, the Netherlands\, and France\, Wind\,Tide & Oar creates a contemplative space\, addressing themes of ecology\, heritage\, traditional skills\, and maritime history. Using a 1960s hand-wound camera\, Wahl offers a poetic and intimate perspective on a millennia-old craft\, upended by the invention of mechanised power. \nThrough the film’s reveries\, sailing becomes a means to explore our interaction with and responsibility to the environment. It invites deep reflection on our relationship with nature\, our understanding of and commitment to sustainability\, and our care for the world around us. \n  \nABOUT  THE FILMMAKER: \nWahl‘s work has been screened internationally at film festivals such as CPH:DOX\, Festival du nouveau cinéma and Open City Docs\, in art galleries and museums like Centre Pompidou Metz\, Royal Museums Greenwich and the Whitworth\, as well as in universities like NYU\, documentary art centres like Union Docs\, and by sea onboard an engineless Thamses sailing barge touring the South East coast of England. \nHe has won several international awards with his films\, and they’ve featured in magazines like Sight and Sound and The Wire\, and received funding from organisations such as Arts Council England\, The Henry Moore Foundation\, and the Royal Photographic Society. \nHis writing has been published in magazines\, academic journals and books. He has also curated film programmes\, been part of international film festival juries\, taught film & photography courses in university and community settings in the UK and abroad\, and worked as an AHRC funded research associate for the University of Manchester. \nWind\, Tide & Oar\, his film about the art of engineless sailing\, is distributed by Tull Stories\, and will be released into UK cinemas in spring 2025. \n  \n🗓 April 8\, 2025\n⏱️ 6-8 PM\n📍Screening Room VA-114\n.\nThis screening received generous support from the Concordia Council on Student Life\n\n.\n.
