A film by Esteban Sapir
Thursday, Mar 4th, LTB10, 19:45 Argentina, 2007, 90 mins About the film A remarkable fantasy from Argentina, fashioned as a silent film (it's set in a city whose inhabitants cannot speak) and full of handmade expressionist special-effects and animated subtitles that give it the look of a black-and-white illustrated pop-up book. The story tells of a group of free-thinking rebels who fight back against the evil Mr TV, who controls via his hypnotic television broadcasts. Lovers of Tim Burton, Guy Maddin, Terry Gilliam and cinema's early experimenters such as Georges Méliès and Fritz Lang won't want to miss this ingenious flight of fancy. |

Internet Explorer Support |
|
As some of you may notice the website is not displaying correctly in internet explorer. I've only tested it only editted the website for internet explorer 8 support so far it works fine (though looks a little different) however older versions may not be supported. The website has been designed for the FireFox browser (Google Chrome seems to work fine too) but over the coming weeks I'll try and sort out compatibility issues. Expect the website to be down for maintence every now and again as I try to sort things out. |
