REVIEWS

Volchok (Wolfy, 2009)

Vassily Sigarev's debut feature is a raw violent drama of the destructive relationship between a mother and her daughter. A masterpiece of the Russian New Drama.

Algunas Chicas (Some Girls) – Venice 70 Orizzonti

A rather obscure and off beat thriller by Santiago Palavecino that is set contemporarily in dream and reality.

The Act of Killing (2012)

Joshua Oppenheimer creates a multilayered documentary that explores the Indonesian massacres by blending fiction with reality, the present with the past and surrealism with true horror.

Ucho (The Ear, 1970)

Karel Kachyňa directs one of the most iconic films on depicting the mentality of a totalitarian regime. Banned for 20 years in Czechoslovakia.

Ida (2013)

Paweł Pawlikowski tries to express everything that troubled 60s Poland but his aesthetic austere formalism surpasses the content.
