Description:

A baroque rock’n’roll film. Ana and Peter are driving home with their parents. Their father is very drunk and is having a row with their mother. The frightened children move away from the car and hide in a church. But the vicar locks up the church and they are left, trapped in the darkness. The children find themselves surrounded by fantastic frescos, telling stories of heaven and hell, life and death.

Human Touch

Human Touch

dir. Paul Cox

Australia, 2004 - 101

Anna, a woman in her thirties with a successful career as a singer, is in a relationship with painter and artist David. During a choir performance, her voice commands the attention of Edward, a wealthy and cultured man in his sixties. Anna accepts an invitation to his opulent mansion in the hope that he will take an interest in funding the choir. Instead she finds herself in a dense world of art, filled with beauty and erotic lushness. Edward in turn, sensing a latent sensuality in Anna, asks her to pose for a series of nude photographs. David feels threatened by Edward’s capacity to reach a part of Anna he has been unable to reach himself.

Dead Man's Shoes

Dead Man's Shoes

Dead Man's Shoes

dir. Shane Meadows

, 2004 - 86

One of Shane Meadows’ best films, shot in the classical Peckinpah/Eastwood tradition. Paddy Considine (also co-writer) plays the role of his life as the angel of vengeance. This is a fantastic tragicomic sketch of a town in the Midlands. Richard returns after being away some years, but he’s not here for nostalgic reasons… Meadows provides an incomparable picture of the world of hard and occasionally mean suckers with a talent for bullshit. The dialogues are superior, the characters convincing, the mood threatening, the music hip, the violence not for children.
