Using the author’s personal estate, current images of places where she lived or were dear to her, and archival images of television and film; using parts of her prose and poetry always with first-person testimonies; from Porto to Lisbon, from Granja to Lagos, from the Atlantic Sea to the Mediterranean, from Greece to 25 April: the passions and disappointments of a life and work dedicated to the search for the real, freedom and justice.Read More »

Irina Golubeva – Andrey Tarkovsky – Trudno byt bogom AKA It’s hard to be God (2019)
2011-2020DocumentaryIrina GolubevaRussiaTVТрудно быть богом
Quote:
Andrei Tarkovsky is the most famous Russian director, who during his lifetime was called a genius. He did not take many pictures, but they all became classics of world cinema. “Andrey Rublev”, “Solaris”, “Mirror”, “Stalker”. It seemed that he created his films from air, water and fire, from deep emotions and even his own dreams. This is an extremely sincere, confessional art, but what is the creator who created it?! What was this God who lived the mortal life of a man with his weaknesses, fears, doubts? For the first time we will tell about the real Andrei Tarkovsky, we will open the veil of his strange, mysterious and very personal worlds.Read More » -
Jeffrey Perkins – George: The Story of George Maciunas and Fluxus (2018)
USA2011-2020DocumentaryExperimentalJeffrey Perkins

In 1961 Lithuanian American artist and impresario George Maciunas established the avant-garde art movement Fluxus. George details the rise of Fluxus following a sensationalized tour of “concerts” in Europe in 1962, and continuing in New York for most of the 1960s and ’70s. During this time Maciunas was converting the dying industrial buildings of Soho into a network of artists’ lofts, creating one of the first official real estate co-ops of artist-owned buildings. Maciunas’s life and legacy—as recounted by artists of his generation, including Yoko Ono and Jonas Mekas—ignited debates that remain pivotal to artists working today.Read More »
