REVIEWS

Tharlo – Venice 72 Orizzonti

Pema Tseden depicts through a visually immaculate and lyrical slow burning film, how rough is to search for your own inner hidden identity.

Un Lac (A Lake, 2008)

An excellent example of experimental cinema that touches the verges of lyrical poetic naturalism by Philippe Grandrieux.

Eyforiya (Euphoria, 2006)

A tragic romantic story set in the immense Russian steppe. A theatrical experience told by Ivan Vyrypaev in pure cinematic language.

Krugovi (Circles, 2013)

A heroic act during the Yugoslav war haunts the lives of the heroes. Concentric circles of fate can bring atonement. Directed by Srdan Golubović.

Boi Neon (Neon Bull) – Venice 72 Orizzonti

Gabriel Mascaro observes the social and cultural changes of Brazilian society as genders lose their identities and when a vaquero dreams to be a tailor.
