My First Film poster

Released in 2018, My First Film is a notable film directed by Zia Anger, running about 105 minutes. “A Live Cinema Presentation” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. A feature-length multimedia performance in which filmmaker Zia Anger interacts with media on screen and the audience using real-time text, spontaneous Google searches, audience directives and AirDrops. Through the performance, Anger probes and dissects her “abandoned” works to re-imagine the relationship between the audience, the filmmaker, the movie theater and cinema and erases the line between a filmmaker’s corporeal body and their body of work. A vital, singular, innovative work that explores what it means to be a woman and an artist, the project showcases Anger’s sensibilities and pushes the boundaries of cinematic experience.

Who’s in it. My First Film stars Zia Anger.
