REVIEWS

Poziția Copilului (Child’s Pose, 2013)

Calin Peter Netzer directs a powerful family drama of characters under Romania's post-communist corrupted society. Golden Bear at the 63rd Berlin Film Festival.

Marionette (2007)

Minos Nikolakakis creates a dark minimalistic tale that comes closer to reality or a dark reality that touches the edges of chilling fantasy.

Viharsarok (Land of Storms) – Sarajevo 20

A deeply emotional and visually impressive drama by Ádám Császi, that exposes the issue of homophobia in modern day Hungary.

Jauja (2014)

Jodorowsky meets Tarkovsky with a touch of Beckettian minimalism in Lisandro Alonso's hypnotic meta-Western that leads Viggo Mortensen into a never-ending journey to a surreal existential void.

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.
