REVIEWS

A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence – Venice 71

The best finale to Roy Andersson's witty and extremely unpredictable existentialistic Living Trilogy. Golden Lion at the 71st Venice Film Festival.

Am Himmel Der Tag (Breaking Horizons) – Torino 30

A true contemporary film by Pola Beck which examines real issues that the 20-something generation faces today.

Žert (The Joke, 1968)

Possibly the most shattering indictment of totalitarianism to come out of a Communist country - Amos Vogel

Ana Yurdu (Motherland) – Thessaloniki 56 Balkan Survey

Senem Tüzen explores if Motherland could be the place of reconciliation of past and present in an ongoing love-hate relationship between a mother and her daughter.

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.
