All Me: The Life and Times of Winfred Rembert Mon Oct 17, 4:30pm; Tue Oct 18, 5:50pm
Dir. Vivian Ducat. 2011. 78mins. USA. Ducat looks at the life and work of African-American artist Rembert, who hand-tools images in leather and colors them in. The art is autobiographical, drawing on his experiences growing up in the racist South of the 1950s. The film glosses over the racial complexities of Rembert�s wealthy white clients and patrons embracing him and his work, which seems a strange oversight at best. Nonetheless, Rembert�s stories are compelling, as is watching him at work.�Hank Sartin
