Cinema Studies affiliated faculty invite you to a sensorial and intellectual feast of creative and critical research questions about feminist film and viewing practices and artistic works that center embodiments, bodies that move, and bodies that seek joy and/or struggle to find joy. Emily Bivens, Maria Stehle, Brittany Murray, Elaine McMillion Sheldon, Eleni Palis, and Heather Coker Hawkins will share how creative movement and dance, movement on screen, and sound recordings can foster awareness of the challenges of sustaining life on a wounded planet.  

This event is part of One Health + Humanities Days, a three-day series of events showcasing the Critical role that arts and humanities play in understanding and exploring sustainability and global wellbeing, including human, animal, plan, and environmental health. Events will take place October 25-27, 2023, on and around the UT Knoxville campus.
