In the middle of a broadcast about Typhoon Yolanda's initial impact, reporter Jiggy Manicad was faced with the reality that he no longer had communication with his station. They were, for all intents and purposes, stranded in Tacloban. With little option, and his crew started the six hour walk to Alto, where the closest broadcast antenna was to be found. Letting the world know what was happening to was a priority, but they were driven by the need to let their families and friends know they were all still alive. Along the way, they encountered residents and victims of the massive typhoon, and with each step it became increasingly clear just how devastating this storm was. This was a storm that was going to change lives.

‘Finding Fanon’ is the first part in a series of works by artists Larry Achiampong and David Blandy; inspired by the lost plays of Frantz Fanon, (1925-1961) a politically radical humanist whose practice dealt with the psychopathology of colonisation and the social and cultural consequences of decolonisation. In the film, the two artists negotiate Fanon’s ideas, examining the politics of race, racism and the post-colonial, and how these societal issues affect their relationship. Their conflict is played out through a script that melds found texts and personal testimony, transposing their drama to a junkyard houseboat at an unspecified time in the future. Navigating the past, present and future, Achiampong and Blandy question the promise of globalisation, recognising its impact on their own heritage.

Secondo film di Buñuel dopo Un chien andalou dell'anno precedente, col quale costituisce il vero e proprio manifesto del surrealismo cinematografico (alla sceneggiatura collaborò Salvador Dalì, fra gli interpreti figura Max Ernst). Nei sessanta minuti di proiezione non assistiamo allo svolgersi di una trama ben definita ma, come al solito nei film del regista spagnolo, al susseguirsi di personaggi e di situazioni canonici, in una critica serrata e corrosiva al clericalismo, all'autoritarismo e alla repressione sessuale.

On 16 July 1212, a Crusader army made up of Castilians, Aragonese and Navarrese (but also French, English and Germans) confronted the army of the Almohad Caliph an-Nasir at the foot of the Sierra Morena mountain range. The Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa, as the battle is known, is considered the most important battle of the Middle Ages on the Iberian Peninsula and is a key event in the history of Spain. More than 800 years later, a group of archaeologists and specialists have begun an archaeological study of the battlefield. Is everything that has been said about the battle true? What secrets does the terrain hide? And, above all, what can we learn today about events that took place hundreds of years ago and that pitted tens of thousands of people against each other in the south of our country?

Damien Thorn (Sam Neill), l’Anticristo, ha proseguito nella sua carriera, diventando ambasciatore americano a Londra e puntando a successi ancora più importanti (è anche a capo di una potente multinazionale). Per il momento, poiché ritiene che stia per nascere un nuovo Redentore, Damien si dedica a progettare una nuova strage degli innocenti in modo di stroncarne la possibilità. Ma non ha fatto i conti con sette monaci italiani (capitanati da Rossano Brazzi), che si mettono in viaggio per contrastare il Male. Seguito de La maledizione di Damien, ha il pregio di proseguire la storia dell’Anticristo e il difetto di non trovare un modo avvincente per farlo. Fiacco, fiacchissimo. Sam Neill si dà da fare per rendere malignamente attraente il suo Damien, ma il contesto in cui si muove è risaputo e pieno del vetusto armamentario dell’horror “religioso”.
