Enea, Aeneas, pursues the myth that his name bears. He does it to feel alive in a dead and decadent age. He does it in the company of Valentino, a newly christened aviator. Together with the drug dealing and the parties, the two boys share their youth. Lifelong friends, victims and perpetrators of a corrupt world, but moved by an incorruptible vitality. Beyond the boundaries of the rules, on the other side of morality, there’s an ocean of humanity and symbols to discover. Enea and Valentino will soar over it to the furthest extremes. But the drugs and the underworld are the invisible shadow of a story that speaks of something else: a melancholy father, a brother who has conflicts at school, a mother defeated by love and a beautiful girl, a happy ending and a happy death, a palm tree falling on a world made of glass. It is between the cracks of everyday life that Enea and Valentino’s adventure gradually finds reprieve. An adventure that may seem criminal to others, but which for them is, and will be first and foremost, an adventure of friendship and love.
这部由电影制片人兼多媒体艺术家约翰·格里蒙普雷(代表作《双重特工》)创作的新纪录片堪称一部精心结构的电影随笔。影片以刚果及其首位民主选举的总理帕特里斯·卢蒙巴的谋杀为背景,融合了地缘政治、爵士音乐、冷战阴谋和殖民实践,是一部爆炸性的混合体。片中既有详尽的研究和数据,又在形式上绝对巧妙和自由。影片追踪了卢蒙巴的权力崛起以及殖民者对将国家控制权交给其公民的抵抗。同时,影片还记录了美国试图通过派遣爵士音乐家如妮娜·西蒙、杜克·艾灵顿、路易斯·阿姆斯特朗等人来影响该国的努力。这些音乐家来到刚果演奏,浑然不知他们不过是中情局阴谋的幌子。最终,这部影片充满了音乐和电影能量,同时对仍然拒绝被抹去的殖民幽灵发出了一声强烈的政治控诉“我控诉”。
这些是第一次世界大战的年代,斯特凡诺·佐尔齐医生在意大利北部一座大城市的免除诊所度过他的日子。在那里,他不仅照顾从前线屠杀中归来的士兵,还与那些希望被免除服役的人作斗争,这些人通过送他们去军事法庭来进行模拟和自残。斯特凡诺从未想过会遇到一个故意寻求病理的人,就像为了从更大的邪恶中拯救自己而购买救生艇一样。但现在他厌倦了这场使他成为检察官和宪兵的冲突。 朱利奥·法拉迪医生则在一栋偏僻建筑的公寓里工作。他是一个不安分的人,强烈反对战争,对那些在他的“私人战争”中的士兵怀有一种温柔而占有欲的爱。如果斯特凡诺确实尽了最大的努力来治疗士兵并让他们回去战斗,朱利奥则让他们生病,或者帮助他们严重自残,足以被免除服役。这两位医生是大学同学,也是好朋友,他们不仅在专业上暗自较劲,在感情上也是如此:他们都与安娜有联系,她是一位勇敢且性格坚强的护士。但在1918年那场可怕的“西班牙”流感大流行到来之际,爱情、政治和科学交织在一起,危险地纠缠在一起…
约翰(克里斯托弗·乔纳 Kristoffer Joner 饰)是一个看似木讷老实的小职员,女友英格丽(安娜·巴赫-维格 Anna Bache-Wiig 饰)的决然离开令他倍受打击。虽然约翰无数次希望重新来过,但是他们的爱情已无力回天。沮丧落寞之际,他结识了住在隔壁的邻居安娜(塞西蕾·A·莫斯利 Cecilie A. Mosli 饰)和金(朱莉娅·舒华特 Julia Schacht 饰)。安娜端庄雍容,金妖冶性感,虽仅有一墙之隔,但是她们似乎知晓约翰和英格丽之间的一切。约翰虽然感到阵阵不安,但却不知不觉为这两个女孩所吸引,他也由此坠入一个深不见底的黑色漩涡…… 本片荣获2005年挪威阿曼达奖最佳男主角奖(Kristoffer Joner)。
Following her mother’s death, manga artist Soriya travels to her ancestral home in Phnom Penh, with hopes of reconnecting with her distant family and using the visit as inspiration for her work. All goes well initially. Renting an apartment in Metta, a rundown Khmer Rouge-era housing complex, her visit to her maternal relatives finds her welcomed with open arms. But Soriya’s waking hours in the apartment and its surroundings are punctuated by terrifying, bloody visions, almost as though she were a conduit for horrors of the past wanting to seep into the present. Inrasothythep Neth and Sokyou Chea’s blood-chilling psychological horror explores a personal and political past through the present, transforming a characterful space into an insidious environment. Surrounded by modern high-rises, this decrepit structure, with its brutalist architecture and peeling surfaces, is a relic from a dark period in history whose painful memories it has absorbed. In tracing Soriya’s ominous journey back to her roots, Tenement hints at a necessary reckoning with Cambodia’s political past without overplaying its historical dimension. It’s an impressive work from a woefully underrepresented national cinema.
