Poster for My Greatest Escape

2009 · ★ 6.5 (10)

Michel Vaujour, former thief and mobster, always chose making a break for freedom over a life behind bars, adventure over a life of submission. He has spent 27 years in prison, 17 of those in solitary confinement. He succeeded in carrying out amazing escapes with toy guns, worthy of a Hollywood script, including a daring helicopter breakout from the roof of a jail. He was finally released on parole in 2003. This documentary is an uplifting and universal story of a remarkable transformation. Michel Vaujour's greatest escape was not from jail but from himself. The liberation of the mind and ultimately, the soul. His isolation forced him to continuously confront himself. The reward has been self-enlightenment.

Poster for Noticiero Cultural Vicus

1983 · ★ 0.0 (0)

The VICUS Cultural Cinematic Newsreel, composed of thirty short films each containing three segments, and MUJER, HOY (WOMAN, TODAY), composed of four short films also with three segments each and a total runtime of approximately five minutes, were both shot on 35mm color film. These were the first newsreels to focus exclusively on cultural content. The diverse appearances and contributions of notable figures in the VICUS and MUJER, HOY collections represent a valuable resource for researchers across various disciplines. They contribute to a deeper understanding of Peru’s cultural memory, serving as a fundamental structure of national identity. The preservation and digitization of these films will allow for exhibitions, forums, and screenings across disciplines such as history, sociology, and anthropology—especially given the scarcity or complete lack of audiovisual material related to renowned visual artists, theater performers, and works that are part of this cultural memory.

Poster for A Motionless Movie

2026 · ★ 0.0 (0)

A Motionless Movie imagines the perspective of Korean women reading the domestic/women’s pages of newspapers carrying Hollywood news in the 1920s and ’30s, and loosely traces Clara Bow’s trajectory across these pages. Her constant presence under descriptors such as “the quintessential Modern Girl” or “the typical flapper,” followed by her sudden disappearance after marriage and childbirth, prompts reflection not only on her movement within film but also on what it means to be free in front of the camera and in the gaze of the press.
