Centered around distopias, June Film Programme will feature the last screenings of the season in the historical atmosphere of Kundura Cinema.
1985 produced by the director Terry Gilliam, Brazil tells the story of a statistician Civil servant named Sam Lowry played by Robert de Niro who is exhausted by the bureaucracy and technology surrounding him. He finds peace in his dreams that isolates him from everything. He keeps dreaming about saving the same woman. And the real world where Sam lives is ruled by a computer controlling everything.
Both producer and a talented director Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner: The Final Cut filmed in 1982 and Blade Runner 2049 produced 35 years after the first one is on the July programme. The fight between the robots and humans in the streets of Los Angeles in a dystopian time meets with the mesmerizing act of Harrison Ford.
The last chance to watch 1965 black and white produced Alphaville from the talented director of the French New Wave Jean Luc Godard. Alphaville tells the story of private detective Lemmy Caution’s adventure in Ford galaxy’s capital Alphaville. Considered as one the best examples of dystopian genre, Alphaville won The Golden Bear prize in 15th Berlin International Film Festival.
Operation Jane Walk produced in 2018 by the acclaimed directors Leonhard Müllner and Robin Klenger centers around a computer game set in a post-apocalyptic New York. The buildings are partly in ruins, abandoned cars litter the streets and the rule of law has collapsed. Rather than taking on the role of a vigilante, the players become peaceful digital tourists on an architectural tour of the city. Accompanied by a clever soundtrack, the result combines absurdism and black humor in an alternative writing of history in this 17 minutes short film.
