Martyrdom (2017) [Movie] IMDb TMDB
Martírio
director: Tatiana Almeida / Ernesto de Carvalho
other title: Martírio
Waving the flag that states every film is political, Vincent Carelli visibilizes in this documentary the cause of the Guarani-Kaiowá: a group of indigenous people that fear their lands, located in the Mato Grosso do Sul, will be confiscated by the State. A territorial conflict born more than one hundred years ago, during the Paraguay war. While fighting against the Brazilian Congress in order not to be evicted from their homes, the 50.000 indigenous people demand the demarcation of the space that belongs to them. With some rigorous investigative work, the Brazilian director tells with his own voice of the social and political injustices suffered by the Guarani people through material he filmed over the course of more than forty years. The archive images, both color and black and white, reveal the crudeness with which they coexist every day: among the violation of their civil rights and the guts with which they confront the usurpers.
Menschenfrauen (1980) [Movie] TMDB IMDb
Menschenfrauen
Ein verheirateter Mann mit drei Freundinnen scheitert an seinen Rollenvorstellungen, während seine Frau und eine Geliebte, beide schwanger, sich solidarisieren. Die unnatürlich klingenden Dialoge und optischen Verfremdungen sind zwar streckenweise wirkungsvoll, erschweren aber insgesamt dem Zuschauer eine Identifikation mit den dargestellten Charakteren. In seiner Tendenz ist der Film zu plakativ.

Bombay Beach
director: Alma Har'el actor: Camelia Belle / Mathieu Tonetti
other title: 孟买海滩 / 봄베이 비치
'Bombay Beach' is a poetic film on a possible apocalypse. After man detonates an H bomb on a megalopolis, we follow his lonesome wanderings, as well as those of a woman. They are among the few survivors of the cataclysm, seeking a way out of this strange and beautiful hell. They will eventually never meet, as they have to face a major aftermath: the bomb has disturbed the basic rules of nature, and their old world now seems to escape the rules of space-time. They live in a quantum universe, where ubiquity and teleportation are admitted, and their continual coming and going in the rubble and ruins of the city will find no end.
