About

Little Boat

Little Boat takes its name from a small boat that lingers close to the shore—modest in scale, but patient enough to approach images and stories that are often overlooked by larger circuits and institutions. We are drawn to auteur cinema, experimental films, essay films, home movies, and any delicate attempt to think through space, memory, and time.

In practice, Little Boat curates occasional screening programs, conversations, and reading suggestions. We document each project carefully—program notes, posters, booklets, stills, on-site observations—and gradually organize essays, translations, and research fragments on this site, so that every small gesture leaves a visible and traceable record.

We believe that steady, attentive documentation matters more than one-off “grand events.” The Archive section is therefore designed as a slow-growing resource: collecting programming intentions, collaborating venues, audience responses, and the ideas that emerge along the way, to offer open references for future curating, writing, and study.

Little Boat welcomes collaboration with cinemas, independent screening spaces, publishers, writers, and filmmakers themselves. If you are working on a film, a book, or a cross-media project that might find a home on this small boat, we would be glad to be in touch.
