Poster for A Rustling of Leaves: Inside the Philippine Revolution

1988 · ★ 0.0 (0)

A chronicle of the three points of a political triangle — the legal left, the illegal (armed) revolution, and the enemy which threatens them both: the armed reactionary right. It is 1987. The dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos has just been overthrown. Newly elected President Corazon Aquino struggles to wrench control of the country from her own military. A Rustling of Leaves poses the key question facing the revolutionaries and the Filipino Left: Should the People’s Movement continue the guerilla war, or do they dare enter legal politics and reveal the hidden face of the revolution?

Poster for Nocturnos

2010 · ★ 0.0 (0)

The day starts in Lisbon and with it people return to the streets. These men live in a place which is not a home. Martins, the barber from Luanda, Simões with his spears, Manuel and his films and Francisco's silence share a place to rest, a shelter. They have some affinities with the outside world but they communicate through the words that they don't say. Perhaps the differences are clearest in everything that is silenced.

Poster for Der Kunstflüsterer

New York restorer Christian Scheidemann is the "art whisperer". Anyone who is concerned about the durability of their sculpture made of eggshells or their painting made of elephant dung or chewing gum automatically ends up in his studio. Works of art by the most renowned artists await treatment there - today it's works by Warhol and Beuys, tomorrow by Paul McCarthy and Robert Gober. Like an empathetic doctor, Christian Scheidemann treats them in the event of accidents - he accompanies them from their creation to their total loss and is thus the central point of contact for artists, collectors and museums.

Poster for Stairs, Tunnels and Mirrors

1969 · ★ 0.0 (0)

"1969 period. In the beginning of this experimental film a figure in white ascends spiral staircases and escalators and moves away from the camera down endless tunnels and corridors. A model in a black leotard is painted white, turned into art. Another is filmed as she ascends to a rooftop, then confronts herself in a mirror in a corner of a room. As Alice went through the glass, so in the last section there are two women reflecting each other instead of just the one." - Penny Slinger
