REVIEWS

Elena (2011)

The Revelation according to Andrei Zvyagintsev doesn’t come after a terrifying future event. It is the already present moral collapse that will bring the inevitable catastrophe.

L’Apollonide (House of Tolerance, 2011)

Bertrand Bonello's provocative tableau vivant that explores the female sexuality set in a brothel at the turn of the 20th century.

Medeas – Venice 70 Orizzonti

A new approach of the myth of Medea set in the rural countryside of the Southern California, by Andrea Pallaoro.

La Vénus à la Fourrure (Venus in Fur, 2013)

Roman Polanski offers a revamped verbose sadomasochistic experience that manipulates Mathieu Amalric, Emmanuelle Seigner and his audience.

Stachka (Strike, 1925)

The debut feature film by Sergei Eisenstein and the first archetypical example of pure communist propaganda.
