La Commune… Films by Peter Watkins
haus.0 presents a two-day series of Peter Watkin’s works. The film La Commune (Paris 1871) lead the way for upcoming screenings and discussions with audience members, actors and producers of La Commune (Paris 1871).
Moreover, there will be a screening of the documentary The Universal Clock: The Resistance of Peter Watkins by Canadian filmmaker Geoff Bowie that includes scenes of the filming of La Commune. Following this, a number of early amateur films, feature films and a recently conducted interview with the director will be screened.
This haus.0 project was developed following an idea of Peter Watkins to introduce the group Rebond pour La Commune, a network of participants who were involved in the making of the film La Commune (Paris 1871). The group formed during the filming and pushes forward the collective discussion that was started during that time. Caroline Lensing-Hebben, actress and president of the group, and Patrick Watkins, assistant director and casting director, will give a talk about the filming process and the group Rebond.
