The film will be introduced by director Jennifer Montgomery, with Q & A to follow the film.
The Film & Digital Media Department is pleased to present Deliver, the latest work from writer/director Jennifer Montgomery, and to have Montgomery present for the screening.  Deliver is Montgomery's all-female reworking of John Boorman's classic 1972 film Deliverance (based on James Dickey's novel).  More than simple a gender reversal, however, the film raises complicated and provocative questions about hegemonic structures of gender and issues of female homosocial violence.  Moreover, by casting well-known experimental filmmakers Peggy Ahwesh, Jackie Goss, Su Friedrich, Meredith Root, and Montgomery herself as semi-fictional versions of themselves, Deliver also examines the often difficult position of feminist experimental filmmaking within the academic art world.
