Dead Birds.
A 50th Anniversary Celebration

Robert Gardner was already recognized as an important ethnographic filmmaker by the time he premiered Dead Birds in October 1963 at Harvard’s Loeb Drama Center. Fifty years later, the film stands as a turning point in Gardner’s career and indeed in the field of visual anthropology. These two screenings celebrate the film’s 50th anniversary as well as Gardner’s latest work.
