The Whole Shebang

Spanning the entire month of April, The Whole Shebang is a fourteen-venue expanded cinema(s) salute to two of experimental cinema's most beloved icons. Ken (1933–2025) and Flo (1941–2025) were inseparable sweethearts and creative partners from the day they met in 1962, and while their passing last year leaves us bereft, it also provides a welcome opportunity to survey their enormous and extraordinary film and digital oeuvre.

This sweeping festival represents an unprecedented aligning of venues across the city, all of whom presented and championed the Jacobs' uncompromising output during the last six-plus decades. Featuring key works, many theatrical and world premieres, and plenty of deep cuts, The Whole Shebang serves as both a remembrance and an introduction to the duo's remarkable achievements and impossible-to-categorize genius.

Each venue has created its own unique program, and works will not repeat between theaters. Information on individual screenings, as well as guest presenters, will be available on their respective websites and calendars.
