Having escaped from a mental hospital, in which he was locked up with a lifelong diagnosis of "incapacity", he ended up in a large – scale madhouse-the capital. Without documents and a roof over his head, Andrey is looking for ways to regain his right to a free life. Now his route is official offices and endless psychiatric examinations.

Poster for The Displaced View

1988 · ★ 0.0 (0)

The Displaced View traces a personal search for identity and pride, within the unique and suppressed history of the Japanese in Canada.

Utilizing an innovative combination of experimental, dramatic and documentary forms, the film emerges as a deeply moving and compassionate love letter. Just as the official history of the Japanese Canadians has been thrown into question, so does the film’s fictionalized narrative, question documentary as truth.

Poster for Santos Palace

2006 · ★ 5.0 (4)

Santos Palace is a coffee shop in Belgium. There, a waitress serves a strange client. Their eyes meet, minutes pass and we seem to witness a love story that hasn’t began or may have already started, with its potential jealousies and passions, or which may never happen at all; another type of romance. The feeling of seeing or being seen, the rhythmical editing, the use of cinemascope to make objects and spaces appear as abstract forms, the predominance of detailed shots: these are all obsessions, forms and audiovisual ideas that explode in this surprising film.
