Taking (other) Sides (Part V)
May 22, Wednesday and May 26, Sunday, 17.00 hrs.
Mohammed Souied, Nightfall (Lebanon, 2001, 70 minutes)
In the seventies a group of Lebanese men fought with the Palestinian
resistance movement "Fatah". After the Israeli invasion of '82 many of
this so-called "student squad" were dead or had fled from the country.
The few that were left remained in Lebanon, isolated with their
memories.
Knud Vesterskov and David Wojnarowicz, By the Dawn's Early Light
(Denmark, 1993, 77 minutes)
On the road again with the late American artist and agent provocateur
David Wojnerowicz who escorts us on a tour of the disturbed American
psychic landscape. "David Wojnarowicz has caught the age-old voice of
the road, the voice of the traveller, the outcast, the thief, the whore,
the same voice that was heard in Villon's Paris and the Rome of
Petronius."-William Burroughs
May 29, Wednesday, 17.00 hrs.
Alexander Kluge's Six works from "Prime Time" (Germany, 1995-2001, 90
minutes)
Im Sturm der Zeit (1995), Triebwerkhusten (1996), Hinrichtung eines
Elefanten (2000), Altar of Madness (2001), Uberleben Unwahrscheinlich
(2001) and 9 Chore der Engel (2000)
Another selection of new television work from the tireless father of the
new German cinema: Kluge provides us with a panoply of time out
metaphors: Christo's wrapping of the Reichstag, the vacuum of
scientific development, the life of that most symbolic beast and biggest
mammal (the elephant), weekend thrill-kill drag racing all the way to
that biggest time out (and grandest opposition) of all, the realm of the
angels.
