The post David Gregory – Tales of the Uncanny (2020) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

A successful sculptor whose life run by domineering wife and mother discovers a secret organization in which members can watch the lives of most dysfunctional, depraved families in the town which are fed from hidden cameras. When he stumbles upon a channel showing a little boy who’s being viciously abused by his parents, he tries to find the kid to save him. But his quest leads him back to a secret door in his own house that could be the answer to many puzzles.

Quote:
“The Forbidden Door” would make Hitchcock and Almodovar proud. Its protagonist, a sculptor who is both inspired and haunted by female reproduction, becomes hooked on a warped reality show that unlocks childhood secrets behind the ‘forbidden door’ in his own home. Joko Anwar accessorizes his creepy suspense-horror with a dazzling array of auteur-homage, Freudian psychobabble, swanky art direction and a mellow ’50s jazz score. So despite the Byzantine plot and child abuse scenes that border on exploitive, film buffs and genre fans will be irresistibly seduced by the style rather than the questionable substance. – The Hollywood Reporter

Quote:
Blind Pig Who Wants to Fly is a film that is both serious and playful. The film tackles a sensitive racial political issue, namely the denial of the cultural identity of the Chinese minority in Indonesia, but is also filled with humorous and bizarre jokes and situations.
The film is made up of several sketches that can differ in their tone and approach, yet keep returning to the central issue of the glossed-over Chinese identity. The insecurity, fear and uprooting this causes among Chinese Indonesians is the real subject of the film. The subject is obviously close to the maker’s heart.
It’s a film that does not reveal itself directly when being watched. The striking, fragmentary structure is far from mathematical, because the maker only follows his intuition. There are several storylines, but that of the firework girl Linda is one of the most important. People from her surroundings, and also from her past, each get their own minor narratives, including the pig from the title.
The film is often funny, but not light. A well-known song by Stevie Wonder is for instance repeated so often that it becomes confusing and worrying. The maker obviously doesn’t want to make a comfortable film, nor only to paint surrealistic scenes. That’s why the film also includes real images of real anti-Chinese riots and plundering.

Synopsis:
Joni (Nicholas Saputra) is obsessed with film, and he’s not the only one, as he points out in a pre-credit sequence, in which we hear various Jakarta residents comparing their own lives to the movies that they love. Joni has made the movies his life, even if it’s just as a delivery man, using his motorbike to bring film reels from one theater in the city to the next, so that the canny exhibitors can save money on prints. Joni prides himself on always getting to his destination in time for the reel changes, so the screenings aren’t interrupted. He knows every type of filmgoer, and gives us a rundown. One day, he sees a beautiful young woman (Mariana Renata) entering the theater with her arrogant film-snob date, Otto (Surya Saputra). Joni is immediately smitten, and when he has an opportunity, gets up the nerve to speak to her. She propositions him. If he gets the second half of the film she’s seeing to the theater in time for the reel change, she’ll tell him her name. Joni happily agrees, but the entire city seems to conspire against him on this day. First, he stops to help a blind man cross the road, and his bike is stolen. That’s just the beginning of his troubles, as he’s forced to chase down thieves, help a woman give birth, and even audition for a rock band, all in an effort to do his job, and speak to a pretty girl, who may or may not have a boyfriend. Janji Joni marks the feature debut of writer/director Joko Anwar. It features a cameo (as a movie critic) by producer Nia Di Nata, the writer/director of Arisan! The film had its U.S. premiere at the 2005 Asian American International Film Festival
