November 13 – November 20, 2022 Kathleen Collin’s LOSING GROUND Limited Engagement Los Feliz 3 | New 4K Restoration!
The American Cinematheque is proud to present the new 4K restoration of Kathleen Collins’ LOSING GROUND. LOSING GROUND, 1982, Kino Lorber, 86 min, USA, Dir: Kathleen Collins. One of the first feature films directed by an African American woman, Kathleen Collins’s LOSING GROUND tells the story of a marriage between two remarkable people, both at a crossroads in their lives. Applying a deft comic touch to a deeply personal exploration of love, race, and gender, Collins crafts a complex tale of personal discovery that, after decades of neglect, has reemerged as a still-fresh landmark of independent cinema. Restored by the Yale Film Archive and The Film Foundation. Funding provided by the Hobson/Lucas Family Foundation.
