Prior to the discussion AEMI presents its inaugural screening of the work of Anne Charlotte Robertson in a programme curated and introduced by Benjamin Cook, in association with Harvard Film Archive.

Begun in the early 1980s and running to over thirty eight hours of Super 8 film, Anne Charlotte Robertson’s Five Year Diary stands as one of the major works of diary film-making. The films are an intimate and exhaustively narrated chronicle of her daily life in Framingham, Massachusetts and her battles with depression, paranoia, and borderline schizophrenia.

AEMI (Artists' & Experimental Moving Image) is a creative platform dedicated to the support and exhibition of artists and experimental moving image.
