...Every Tuesday, at six o'clock in the evening, the Queen of Great Britain gives an audience to the Prime Minister. No one and nothing obliges them to participate in this ritual, but according to the rules of good form, the Prime minister must inform his monarch about events in the country and the world. For six and a half decades, many politicians have replaced each other in the chair of the head of the cabinet, from Sir Winston Churchill to Margaret Thatcher and Theresa May, the world has changed beyond recognition. Only one thing remains unshakable – the report of the Prime minister, whoever it is, is received by Queen Elizabeth II, who has occupied the British throne for the longest time in history.

Barbara Hammer’s Audience is a fascinating deep cut from the director’s prodigious filmography. Relatively raw in its design, this 16mm diary of audience reactions at retrospectives of Hammer’s work in San Francisco, London, Toronto, and Montreal in the early 1980s bears none of the distinctive visual flourishes and essayistic form one usually finds in her filmmaking. Today, Audience serves as an invaluable historical archive, providing quick but complex portraits of lesbian scenes in different cities and countries: the San Francisco women are bold and raucous, treating Hammer like a celebrity; the London crowd more reserved and tentative; the Canadians politely critical after initial hesitation. It also functions as a testament to the power of Hammer herself as a figure of lesbian culture, showing how fully she engages audiences to incite new forms of discourse about representation.
