Kieślowski on his work

To tell you the truth, in my work, love is always in opposition to the elements. It creates dilemmas. It brings in suffering. We can’t live with it, and we can’t live without it. You’ll rarely find a happy ending in my work.

REVIEWS

L’Apollonide (House of Tolerance, 2011)

Bertrand Bonello's provocative tableau vivant that explores the female sexuality set in a brothel at the turn of the 20th century.

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.

Boy Meets Girl (1984)

The first masterfully structured abstract elegiac work by Leos Carax as he becomes French cinema's most acknowledged enfant terrible.

Ida (2013)

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

Sobytie (The Event) – Tallinn 19 Docs

Sergei Loznitsa investigates the events that took place in Leningrad, after a failed coup d’état and marked Soviet Union's end, by creating a grainy prequel of his previous doc, Maidan.
