In 1930 Soviet filmmaker Sergei Eisenstein spent six months in Los Angeles under contract with Paramount. A decade later German playwright and theater director Bertolt Brecht, a refugee from Nazi Germany, lived there from 1941 to 1947. Both set out to make films in Hollywood on their own terms. Working in the world's most famous factory of dreams, they believed that artists must call into question the way we understand our world. In A World Redrawn a project that encompassed an exhibition, a book and three films Zoe Beloff explores their unrealized film scenarios "Glass House" and "A Model Family in a Model Home and reimagines them for today.
Zoe Beloff returns to the Velaslavasay to discuss the project and screen the three films.
