The Story of Film: An Odyssey
Mark Cousins
Mark Cousins, Jean-Michel Frodon
Эпическое путешествие по мировыми столицам от Болливуда до Голливуда, это «золотой век» 20-х годов и появление звука. Это истории секса и мелодрамы в 50-е и великие кинозвезды 50-х и 60-х, масштаба Федерико Феллини. Это американский кинематограф 60-х и 70-х, когда режиссеры пытались изменить мир, появление картин «Звездные войны», «Челюсти» и «Изгоняющий дьявола». Это 80-е, время протеста в кино, новый «золотой век» 90-х и появление новых звезд на небосклоне в наше время.

This fiction-documentary hybrid uses a sensational real-life event—the arrest of a young man on charges that he fraudulently impersonated the well-known filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf—as the basis for a stunning, multilayered investigation into movies, identity, artistic creation, and existence, in which the real people from the case play themselves.

Seifollah Samadian
Abbas Kiarostami, Jafar Panahi
Kiarostami as we have never really known him before, despite the transformative power of his many movies. Filmmaker and close friend Samadian avoids the talking heads of so many artistic memoirs to offer more candid clips of Kiarostami the man: lover of poetry, convivial with friends, engaging landscapes on and off screen, laughing with other artists. The artist and visionary emerges more clearly but so does a loving, wondrous man whom we will miss now as much as the auteur.
