Lis Rhodes

Lis Rhodes has been at the forefront of pioneering experimental, activist, and feminist filmmaking in the UK. She was a foundational member of Circles, a feminist film network established in the 70s, now known as Cinenova. The Essay Film Festival is hosting a discussion day featuring Circles’ work on Monday the 27th of March. Rhodes’ work uses a variety of different forms and mediums including writing, performances, and installations, and her work interrogates the continued injustices and inequalities fostered by contemporary neoliberal and capitalist frameworks.
