Contemplative Cinema

Blood, Shame, Pain, and Ecstasy is the first installment of Contemplative Cinema, a new screening series of alternative film and video at LaGrange in Deep Ellum on the first Friday of every month starting on March 4th. This first screening is a group of short films and videos programmed around a film entitled A Fire In My Belly, made by artist David Wojnarowicz in 1987, that was at the center of the recent controversy brought on by its removal from an exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery.
