"2morrow / Weekend / Short Meter" - new names, memories and the benefits of oblivion Automatic translate

MOSCOW. On October 16-18, the International Independent Film Festival “2morrow / Weekend / Short Meter” was held.

The venue for 2morrow was the Cultural and Educational Center for Documentary Films. The festival, held since 2007, is inextricably linked with the name of Ivan Dykhovichny. The birth of such an idea in a man whose father, a playwright spent his time in the camp due to the threat of harmless comedies to someone imagining, is quite natural.

After the death of the director in 2009, his wife Olga is involved in organizational and creative issues. The presence in the program of current novelties and new names, the presence in the jury of authoritative characters in the world of authorial cinema of characters created "2morrow" the reputation of a film forum open to experiments, guaranteeing the right for free expression of opinions. The backbone of the current program was new short films. In the short meter competition - the provocative, surreal, acutely social work of Rivers, Cherkassky, Sitaru, Restrepo. Viewers were able to get acquainted with the latest news from those that aroused the interest of the public in Sundance, Cannes, Locarno. Retrospective for film lovers “Cult. The Beginning ”- the debuts of the recognized current greats: von Trier, Gomes, Estlund, Alonso and others. Russian Bakur Bakuradze and a golden cherry on the cake of any Apichatpon Virasetakun festival were presented in two sections at once - short and full meters. "Brother Deyan" Bakuradze - about the tragedy of a devotee and a long time hiding from the arrest of General Ratko Mladic, an attempt to collect pieces of truth where it is a priori impossible. The Cannes triumph Apichatpong Virasetakul in The Cemetery of Magnificence unconsciously uses allusions to Sleeping Beauty. Aesopian language is trouble-free in a conversation about a dictatorship, the reality of which is sometimes possible to transfer only by falling into infinite oblivion.
