We are delighted to welcome Reichardt, the very first guest in BAMPFA's long-running Afterimage series in 2009, back to present her most recent film, Showing Up, and to launch a spotlight series that includes three more films she has released in the intervening years. While she often chooses to film her subjects from a distance, Reichardt simultaneously focuses on the details of work and life. Her fascination with process is reflected in all the films in the series. Her characters are more often shown working and reflecting than reacting or emoting, and all of the identities of the people in Reichardt's films are as much a creation of the gestures of the work they do as the lines that they speak. - Kate MacKay, Associate Film Curator
