Poster for Dough

2006 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Dough (2006) depicts a team of women pulling a rope of dough through a series of claustrophobic factory compartments. At the center of the Rube Goldberg–like system, an obese woman kneads and directs the dough. When a bouquet of flowers is placed before her, a chain reaction is set off: the flowers produce allergic tears, which fall to the floor and generate steam, which in turn causes the dough to rise before it is finally packaged. Equating industrial and bodily processes, the journey of the fleshy dough alludes to digestion, excretion, and birth. Dough evinces the influence of 1970s feminist body art and also recalls Matthew Barney’s elaborate sets and surreal physical processes. Like Barney, Rottenberg gives sculptural form to her videos; here, the projection appears in a cramped wooden room, its outer supports weighed down by doughy sandbags.

Janie John, who after a childhood shaped by neglect and invisibility is pulled into a world that finally sees her, where pain is power and bodies are built, not born. Female bodybuilding offers her something she’s never had: the chance to become untouchable. Coached by a former champion, she begins an extreme transformation, pushing her body past its limits through relentless training, enhancers, and dependence. As her physique sharpens, Janie rises fast, but her grip on reality fractures. Trapped in a system that rewards perfection and punishes weakness, Janie spirals toward a godlike ideal that’s slowly destroying her from within.

"Taken from a live multi 16mm projector performance Sam Hamilton and I do. The Loops are from a film By Campbell Farquhar called "5 Second Exposure". This dates from about April 2006 and the performance has changed somewhat since. It uses up to five 16mm projectors, turntables, glass, and sonic and celluloidic manipulation." - Eve Gordon

Poster for Revealed: Otto By Otto

2024 · ★ 7.0 (1)

Inspired to make an original, intimate family portrait, Gracie Otto directs a feature length documentary on her father, Barry Otto, whose career in Australian theatre, film and television has spanned more than 50 years. Baz as he is affectionately known is one of a kind - a truly creative, endearing and extremely eccentric personality who embraces the serious and the silly. This story is about Gracie's relationship with her father, in the twilight of his career and his life, as she tries to capture his memories, before his memory disappears. This is not a traditional biopic, but a deeply personal, artistic and cinematic reflection. Sometimes poignant in its exploration of deteriorating health, the film looks at the world through Baz's eyes, an ode to living a passionate life, that both honours him and preserves his memory.
