Salomé Lamas works the seam between documentary and fiction, and her films rarely surface in New York outside a museum program. This Long Century, the artist-run archive of personal ephemera, has built the evening around her, and Lamas is in the room afterward. It is the kind of Friday night that a repertory house exists to make possible.

What to expect

An 89-minute DCP program of Lamas's work, curated by This Long Century, followed by a Q&A with the filmmaker in person. Expect a small, attentive Ludlow Street crowd rather than a festival scrum, and a conversation that runs toward process rather than plot.

Good to know

  • Runtime is roughly 89 minutes, plus the Q&A
  • Salomé Lamas appears in person
  • Curated by This Long Century, an online archive of artists' personal material
  • Metrograph is at 7 Ludlow Street; the closest subway is East Broadway on the F
  • There is a bar and restaurant upstairs at Metrograph if you want to make an evening of it
