Poster for My Saints

2014 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Following Jean-Pierre Gorin, and other New Wave filmmakers, Moyra Davey’s transparency allows us to explore the space between the text and the writer’s construction of the narrative, between text and reader, between word and interpretation. The film My Saints is a collective portrait of friends and family as they interpret a passage from Genet’s journal—in which he watches a friend frantically search for money that he stole—and elaborate their own experiences of deception. Davey’s project is one in which a text becomes a source for delving into a rigorous scrutiny of one’s self.

Poster for Denis Chuzhoy: Family Comedy Evening

2020 · ★ 6.5 (2)

Second stand-up concert by Denis Chuzhoy was called “Jokes about Death” for a long time, but closer to the shooting it became clear that it was more about family. So it ended up with a less offensive title. But more truthful. After all, stand-up is when truth and harshness, as they say in the project "Women's stand-up". Our childhood traumas remain with us forever. And you can live with them. Even write almost 50 minutes of jokes about them."
