REVIEWS

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.

Wednesday, May 9 – Venice 72 Orizzonti

In his debut film, Vahid Jalilvand is looking for humanitarian solidarity in today’s Iranian society through the private realistic stories of two women in need.

Suntan – Jerusalem 33

Argyris Papadimitropoulos’ third feature film is a bleak and bittersweet cul-de-sac set under the glaring Aegean sun.

Skammen (Shame, 1968)

Ingmar Bergman, in one of his lesser known masterpieces, de-dramatizes a war by transferring all its tragedy to Liv Ullmann, Max von Sydow and inevitably to his audience too.

Deniz Gamze Ergüven creates a "joyful" feministic fairytale that explores if teen rebelliousness and sexual awareness can survive in conservative Anatolia. Heart of Sarajevo for Best Feature Film at the 21st Sarajevo Film Festival.
