March 2022

Join the Smithsonian American Art Museum for our fourth annual Women Filmmakers Festival. This year, the festival is presented exclusively online. Screenings and virtual programs are available throughout March in honor of Women’s History Month. Tune in to discover the inspiring work of contemporary filmmakers.  

The 2022 festival focuses on (Re)Making Space and features artists who, through their artistic choices, the conventions they overturn, and the visionary insights they bring to each frame, use their cameras and imaginations to reshape how we see the world. Through powerful and experimental artworks, they invite us to examine our relationships to and deeper understandings of chosen landscapes. These artists uncover delicate systems of coexistence and layered histories embedded in the grounds we all traverse. The 2022 featured artists are Sasha Wortzel, Beatriz Santiago Muñoz, and Shirin Neshat.
