This week we catch up on some festival viewings over the last couple of months and get to graze on the work of some of our favourite filmmakers.
From the London Film Festival, we discuss the presentation of Stefan and Franciszka Themerson's EUROPA (1931), an extraordinary Polish avant-garde short long thought lost after its confiscation by the Nazis, and Sam reviews Radu Jude's hilarious and timely new feature BAD LUCK BANGING OR LOONY PORN (2021). Next, Emmett reports on Tsai Ming-Liang's long-awaited return to feature filmmaking with the mesmeric DAYS (2020), presented at the Queer East Film Festival. We then discuss the programme at this year's Japanese Avant-garde and Experimental Film Festival, including Shuji Terayama's BOXER (1977), Tatsumi Kumashiro’s LOVERS ARE WET (1973) and Kon Ichikawa's TOKYO OLYMPIAD (1965), before rounding things up with a look back on the recent presentation of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet's FROM THE CLOUD TO THE RESISTANCE (1979) at the Institut Francais as part of the Open City Documentary Festival.
With covers of 'Days' by the Kinks and the theme from 'Boxer' by J.A. Seazer.
