This Autumn, Glasgow Women's Library is delighted to present Collections On Camera: a series of film screenings and activities celebrating feminist cinema related to our collections. From much-beloved classics of DIY filmmaking to captivating documentaries, join us to celebrate women’s stories of joy and resilience. Archival documentary Sisters with Transistors, directed by Lisa Rovner, traces the forgotten history of women’s role in the rise of electronic music. Featuring pioneers such as Clara Rockwell and Laurie Spiegel, the film reveals how musical experimentation can give way to social liberation. Following the screening, join us for a panel discussion with Arusa Qureshi, music journalist and programmer, and Suzi Cook, GLOSS (Glasgow Library of Synthesized Sound) Co-Founder and one-half of Free Love. The film will be screened with subtitles and the panel discussion will be live captioned. Supported by Film Hub Scotland, part of the BFI’s Film Audience Network, awarding funding on behalf of Screen Scotland and the BFI National Lottery.
