In the organizer's words:

by Kelly Reichardt, USA 2022, 108 min.
With Michelle Williams, Hong Chau, André Benjamin

For "Showing Up", Kelly Reichardt travels to the US state of Oregon to tell the story of sculptor Lizzie in the surroundings of the Portland Art Academy. While Reichardt has turned to atmospheric drama in her last films, this time, together with Jonathan Raymond, she writes a narrative with a thoroughly comedic feel.

In her role as Lizzie's colleague Jo, Hong Chau radiates the kind of freshness and energy at the right moments that the quiet and withdrawn protagonist played by Michelle Williams tends to use more sparingly. Reichardt succeeds in creating a decelerated, flowing film that does not necessarily function as a commentary on the art scene, but can certainly be read as such.
