Join us for an evening of screenings and conversation with director Sandy Ismail.

Sandy is a Lebanese American film director and image-maker from Queens, New York, who has directed short films and music videos for duendita, Anna Wise, and Isa Reyes. Her body of work, ranging from music videos to narrative and experimental films, concentrates on themes such as death, faith, culture, injustices, and mental health. Her work has been featured in Pitchfork, PAPER, Wonderland, Office, and other publications.

At this installment of the MoMA Teens Film Club, we will explore the art of music videos and screen a selection of Sandy’s work in the genre. The program will be followed by a Q&A with Sandy and her collaborator, musician Isa Reyes. A reception will follow.

MoMA Teens Film Club is a series of screenings of work by young and emerging filmmakers and artists with deep connections to New York City. This program is for folks ages 13–22.
