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. A classic of 1990s New Queer Cinema, Cheryl Dunye’s The Watermelon Woman follows a young Black lesbian filmmaker (Dunye) as she uncovers the story of Fae Richards, an overlooked Black actress from 1930s’ Hollywood. Thoughtful and witty, this film showcases the importance of uncovering forgotten stories. Delve deeper into archival mysteries of The Watermelon Woman and beyond through an introduction from artist and writer Shola von Reinhold. 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.
