REVIEWS

Monanieba (Repentance, 1984)

Tengiz Abuladze by presenting a grotesque realism with a touch of subcutaneous self-sarcasm managed to bury all the fears that had survived for so many years in the USSR.

Force of Evil (1948)

Abrahams Polonsky suggests that entrepreneurship is not so far away from criminality and that something is corrupted in the immaculate postwar American society.

Piccola Patria (Small Homeland) – Venice 70 Orizzonti

A typical rural kitchen sink drama in the industrialized Italian region of Veneto that now faces the economical crisis. Directed by Alessandro Rossetto.

Athina Rachel Tsangari tries to find Who’s the Best in General with a deadpan odd satire that dismantles masculinity and makes Greek Weird Wave to go feel-good. Special Jury Mention at the 21st Sarajevo Film Festival.

Zvizdan (The High Sun) – Thessaloniki 56 Balkan Survey

Dalibor Matanić makes a different post-traumatic approach of the Yugoslav wars as love has to stand in front of any inter-ethnic conflicts.
