The Boy On a Galloping Horse (completed film)

Chłopiec na galopującym koniu

dir. Adam Guziński

Poland, 2006 - 75

SYNOPSIS: Jerzy, a writer whose creativity has burnt out, lives far away from the city with his wife Maria and their seven-year-old son Jasiek. Jerzy's enduring creative crisis and their related financial troubles affect the married couple's drifting apart and the death of their feelings towards each other. One day they find out their son is ill and will have to travel to the city for an operation. For the boy this is but the long anticipated journey to visit a toy car shop, for the parents it is a time of anxiety and separation, which forces them to reflect anew on the essence of their relationship. A film debut inspired by T. Vessas' short story entitled "The Wild Rider".

Sketches of Frank Gehry

Sketches of Frank Gehry

Sketches of Frank Gehry

dir. Sydney Pollack

USA / Germany, 2005 - 83

The hero of Sydney Pollack’s first documentary is the American architect Frank Owen Gehry (b. Ephraim Goldberg), whose projects include the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, the Walt Disney Hall in Los Angeles, and the Dancing House, also known as Ginger and Fred, in Prague. The film took five years of work. Taking as the starting point the original sketches which Gehry made for each of his monumental projects, the film explores the process which the architect undertook to transform these abstract sketches and three-dimensional models, most often made out of scraps of plain cardboard and scotch tape, into towering buildings made of titanium and glass, concrete and steel, wood and stone. This documentary doesn't deal with architectural theory. It strips architectural theory bare, thus opening new perspectives on the life of this artist and his unique manner of working.

Se arrienda

dir. Alberto Fuguet

Chile, 2005 - 109

The end of the 80’s - the young musician Gaston Fernandez has a bright future in front of him. Fifteen years later, destiny and life’s options have separated. Gaston returns from the U.S. to Chile, confronting the reality of a different country and the frustration of an artistic success that never materialized. His friends from the past enjoy the new, developed Chile and their own prosperity, but he thinks they have lost out. Gaston maintains the idealism, the intransigence and the dreams of his youth. He starts missing the good old days. Obligated by circumstances, he has to start working in his father’s real estate agency. The film reflects the profound change suffered by Chile in the past 15 years, and how this change has affected a group of friends and the Chilean population in general.

Fear X

Fear X

Fear X

dir. Nicolas Winding Refn

Denmark / Canada / Brazil, 2003 - 91

The pregnant wife of shopping mall security guard Harry has been murdered. Senseless violence in the American Midwest, it would appear. However, Harry meticulously culls hours of the mall's surveillance video in hopes of finding a clue to the mystery of her death. His clue, however, comes in the form of a dream. A mysterious, atmospheric psycho-thriller, this film evokes David Lynch movies. A suspenseful slice of urban paranoia with a brilliant climax. “Fear X” was written by Refn and Hubert Selby Jr (“Last Exit to Brooklyn”, “Requiem for a Dream”), and beautifully shot by cameraman Larry Smith (“Eyes Wide Shut”) as a psychological film noir.
