	INTERVIEW: Barbara Hammer Teaches (and Titillates with) "History Lessons"
		Hammer is responsible for some of the first lesbian-made films in history including the 1974 landmark experimental short, "Dyketactics." She started with 16 mm films in the '70s, moved on to experimental video art in the '80s and continues to redefine lesbian culture on the web.

		The formerly heterosexual Hammer, who divorced her husband a year after Schizy, has worked exclusively in experimental, nonlinear forms as a means of overcoming the patriarchal bias in conventional filmmaking and its attendant processes of marketing and distribution.
		Hammer can be said to have constructed, in what she has called her "alternative autobiographies," an alternative lesbian gaze.
		Hammer is both a filmmaker and a theorist (see, for example, her important essay "The Politics of Abstraction" in Queer Looks: Perspectives on Lesbian and Gay Film and Video), but while her films have political and theoretical underpinnings, they are also among the most thoughtful and unabashed celebrations of queer life.

		One of the things I love about Barbara Hammer's films is that they always surprise me in various delightful ways and I always learn new things from them.
		It's the most accessible of the recent string of documentaries by far, and it is a superb lesson on the history of lesbian art, as it interrogates the relationships between "the closet" and lesbian artists over the last hundred years.
		I knew Barbara Hammer couldn't do a straight documentary -- her own artistic inventiveness is simply too great merely to show us talking heads and archival stills.

		Her films, some 77 short videos and longer features, are picked apart and studied in film schools for her treatment of multilayered images and merging of archival footage with new work to surreal effect.
		As a result, Hammer's work taken as a whole can be seen as a chronicle, albeit a nonlinear one, of the lesbian-feminist movement of the '60s and '70s.
		Making use of family photos, journal entries, and home movies, Hammer sets out to tell her story before, as she puts it in the film, someone does it for her.

		Hammer has the same dysfunctional family story to tell that most of us do, but she tells it with an artist's touch, intermingling voices of "authority" (from television, mostly) with her own.
		Part of Hammer's arsensal is the shocking image, which she intermittently inserts into the film.
		This process of disguising and then revealing sometimes disturbing truths is a hallmark of her work, and serves another function in commenting on the necessity of disguise as self-protection, especially in a film funded by the NEA.

		Having seen Barbara Hammer films from both of her earlier periods I was intensely curious about how she was going to go from this quite wonderful but demanding (for the audience) kind of art film to a feature-length work accessible enough for film festivals and theatrical release.
		Some of the most astonishing footage in the film are outtakes from the pre-Hayes Code "Lot in Sodom," (1933) a clearly homoerotic theatrical film that Hammer found in the archives of the Eastman House in Rochester.
		These old nitrate prints contain what Hammer believes to be the first homosexual kisses ever put on film--and explain her title.
