Of this and that Cinema Screening Series
presents films "Of Love and Winter"
We kick off our first season with the film
"4"
by Ilya Khrzhanovsky
Russia, 2005, 126 mins
(with English Subtitles)
An apocalyptic journey through the dark heart of the new Russia. Three strangers meet in a Moscow bar one late night and spin fantastic stories, all of them lies. They depart and journey their separate ways through a landscape filled with decaying meat, wild dogs, ravenous crones, cloned piglets, and modern industrial horrors. A completely unique and disturbing film, 4 was held up by Russian censors who wanted 40 minutes cut, but relented after the film won acclaim at film festivals around the world.
Each week, starting in late March, we will screen rare films at the new Knitting Factory in Brooklyn.
We'll begin by focusing on the seasons. The pain, the love, the harvest...
Of Love and Winter
Of Spring and Grapes
Of the Sound and Summer
Of This and That...
We hope you enjoy.
