Surprise Film
The first film in the programme will be a surprise full length feature by Angela Schanelec. It is one of Schanelec's rarest films and it follows an elusive protagonist crisscrossing between countries.
Claire Denis: 35 Shots of Rum (35 rhums) (approximate start time: 8:45PM)
A film like a slow dance into the night, this melancholy portrait of a multicultural circle of friends and lovers is Claire Denis’ tribute to Ozu Yasujirō. At its core, the film deals with the impending separation of a widower and his daughter, both on the threshold of a new life. Emotions are expressed through gazes and dances while the characters’ sad silences create a mutual understanding among them. A rare case of a film in which one gets to really know a group of people and is granted the gift of spending precious time with them.
France / Germany 2008, colour, 35mm, 100 min, French with English subtitles. Directed by Claire Denis. With Alex Descas, Mati Diop, Nicole Dogue, Gregoire Colin, Ingrid Caven. Print Source: New Wave Films, UK.
We encourage you two watch both films as the programme intends to present them as a pair. But if you can only come to the second flim, please check the approximate start time above.
Pleasee note that we do not show any advertisement before our film screenings and start the film at the advertised time.
