Practitioners of ethnography and art have crossed paths multiple times in the 20th and 21st centuries - sometimes viewing each other with enthusiasm, sometimes suspicion. This programme consists of four films by contemporary artists - Charlotte Prodger, Juan Downey, Marvin Gaye Chetwynd and Andrew Norman Wilson – that engage with ethnographic practice. Subjects range from corporate hierarchy within Google to a sub-culture of online trainer fetishists, from cinematic representations of cult rituals to a trip to visit the Yanomami of Venezuela. The films share a self-reflexivity and a questioning of documentary realism. **Workers Leaving the Googleplex** - Andrew Norman Wilson, USA 2011, 12 mins **The Laughing Alligator** - Juan Downey, USA 1979, 27 mins **Call of the Wild** - Marvin Gaye Chetwynd, UK 2007, 13 mins :-* - Charlotte Prodger, UK 2011, 12 mins The same programme will be screening as a pre-festival event on Thursday 16 March 8pm "Possession Rituals" BEEF Bristol Experimental and Expanded Film Brunswick Square 15-16 York Street Bristol BS2 6NX £4/£3 www.beefbristol.org
