Auditorium 140

12:15-12:50 p.m.

This essay will compare Joanna Hogg’s The Souvenir (2019) and The Souvenir II (2021), with recent work by the self-taught actor turned director, Mia Hansen-Løve. Hogg’s project painstakingly recreates her early experience of film school while Hansen-Løve’s film, Bergman Island (2021) depicts a young filmmaker working against the prescriptive models, themes, and contexts of creation set by that of the male auteur.
