**CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS**
THE 5TH ANNUAL WOMEN OF COLOR FILM AND VIDEO FESTIVAL
University of California, Santa Cruz
May 16-18 1996
The annual UCSC Women of Color Film and Video Festival features film/video
screenings and conversations with independent film makers, videographers
and visual media artists. Over the past four years this festival has
drawn diverse audiences and has been a crucial venue for discussions
about the production and circulation of images of women of color. This
year the theme of the festival will organize itself around visual
representations of "rupture"; rupture of identities and subjectivities as
well as the (dis)ruption of dominant paradigms of race, class, gender,
and sexuality. Works sought include, but are not limited to, those
dealing with threats to Affirmative Action, indigeneity, immigration,
resistance, hybridity, queer-ness, despair, desire, transgressions, and
erotics.
