FILM CLUB SCREENING - Buntat na L. (L's Revolt) (Bulgaria/2006/115mins) Dir.Kiran Kolarov. On the night of the graduation ball the pride of the English Language School tries to escape to the West, but he is betrayed and captured. Accused of a political crime, Loris is sentenced. The year is 1986. The prison. “If you don’t know – we will teach you, if you can’t – we will show you how, if you don’t want to – we will force you!” The slogan written in red letters on the wall is put into practice. Torture, cynicism, and physical violence turn the talented young man into an impassive and cold-blooded observer. With the fall of the Berlin Wall, Loris is granted an amnesty. Already free but alienated and indifferent to the world, he is turned into a mission man. In his desperate escape from reality Loris avenges his ruined life and takes the road to his own destruction. But he meets love! Loris tries to find salvation in a new flight... Collab: Embassy of Bulgaria

FILM CLUB SCREENING - Mindscape- Winter Light (Swedish/1962) Dir.Ingmar Bergman. Perhaps the most spiritually bleak and visually stark of Ingmar Bergman's religious chamber series, Winter Light, the second film of the trilogy, is a transitional film, both thematically and conceptually. It marks Bergman's final exploration of religious faith, and serves as a prelude to the human relational drama of his subsequent work. Similar to Through a Glass Darkly, minimal cast, dialogue, and scenery pervade the film, distilling the atmosphere, and story, to its fundamental essence: God's silence. The use of monologues, prolonged silences, and extreme close-ups convey character introspection and emotional isolation. Furthermore, the barren landscape, seasonal climate, and Tomas' illness serve to further reflect the cold emptiness of his soul. Collab: Enlighten Film Society
