About the series: 

What do final films mean to us, and to the filmmakers who create them? This series highlights the question of late and last works, adapted as a powerful lens for thinking about film style and meaning across contemporary global cinema. Inspired by the passing of key auteur directors of the twentieth century, as well as celebrated filmmakers currently making films in an advanced career phrase, the series invites us to reflect on the last works that a director gets to make— whether knowingly, as a considered closing act, or as a stark endpoint to creative activity. 

Curated by Dr. Lee Carruthers (University of Calgary), the series spans five fascinating titles, screening late and last works from Agnes Varda, Orson Welles, Abbas Kiarostami, Derek Jarman, and Alfred Hitchcock. This diverse program illuminates the distinctive qualities associated with final works of cinema and also the ideas about creativity, mortality, and legacy that we project onto them.

This series is presented in collaboration with Dr. Lee Carruthers (University of Calgary) with support from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
