The Treasury of Human Inheritance
Institute of Contemporary Arts
The Treasury of Human Inheritance, dir. Alexis Kyle Mitchell, Canada-UK 2024, English, 60 min.


A collage of home movie archive, hand-processed abstract film and recordings of her own online calls, Alexis Kyle Mitchell’s poetic film essay centres ‘lived body’. Taking its title from the early scientific journal on eugenics, this work reverberates with bodies that move, desire, suffer and simply exist alongside each other.
