In Ann Marie Fleming's 'Pioneers of X-Ray Technology' (a film about Grandpa), super-8 home movies are only one part of the film's cooly complex structure. The first time I saw 'Pioneers' it looked like an uncomplicated portrait of Fleming's grandfather, Dr. Ernest To, who was a photographer, amateur filmmaker and Hong Kong radiologist. On second viewing, the film's ambivalence towards its subject becomes clear.

Poster for Cat Swallows Parakeet and Speaks!

1996 · ★ 2.0 (2)

Ileana Pietrobruno's triumph of mid-vaginal modernism masterfully confronts the surreal nature of societal attitudes towards the female body. Beautifully shot at Riverview Hospital (formerly an insane asylum), the film follows the journey of Scheherazade, a young model attempting to insulate herself from paternalistic and sinister medicalization throught the re-telling of tabloid tales. Replete with lesbians, anorexics, necrophillic undertones and a deluge of menstrual blood, Pietrobruno's febrile fable contains enough raw passion to ignite the sensibilities of even the most faded feminists.

Poster for Anthony McCall: Crossing The Elbe

2015 · ★ 0.0 (0)

The film is a form-concious study of a city as well as of a site specific artwork by Anthony McCall. In it’s own way the film enables to re-experience this city again and again. On the other hand the film is a documentation of the artwork; of its conditions and its becoming.
