REVIEWS

Gorod Zero (Zero City, 1988)

Kafkaesque absurdity meets Soviet reality during the years of the extremely bureaucratic Perestroika in this deadpan comedy by Karen Shakhnazarov.

Boy Meets Girl (1984)

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

Un Lac (A Lake, 2008)

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

Love, Theft and Other Entanglements – Berlinale 65 Panorama

A simple story of a simple anti-hero who tries to fix his almost destined troubled life in Palestine. Debut feature film by Muayad Alayan.

Tôkyô Sensô Sengo Hiwa (The Man Who Left His Will on Film, 1970)

Nagisha Ôshima is performing a requiem for Japanese New Wave and he is covering everything, from the sociopolitical changes till his own alienation that he feels as an artist.
