One would imagine that a film entitled I KILLED MY MOTHER would be a wild ride of incestuous violence, but Montreal-based Xavier Dolan’s semi-autobiographical debut feature is more of a testament to the loving bonds between mother and son, no matter how ferocious and unpleasant. The film, which marks the emergence of an enfant terrible auteur in the 20-year-old former child star Dolan, will be the closing night presentation of this year’s New Directors New Films on Sunday ev...
WOMEN WITHOUT MEN (Shirin Neshat)
For most people, a trip to the cinema is a welcome escapism from the harshness of the world and its problems. For others, films with political subjects or contexts are sought out for a population hungry to engage and feeling starved for perspective and analysis. While New Directors New Films is not an overtly political affair, it is hard to avoid the powerful political discourses that careen through some of the films in this year’s pro...
For the first time in memory (if my faulting memory serves me well and it increasingly does NOT), the New Directors New Films showcase opened last evening with a documenary feature. This annual rite of the Spring film season, co-presented by the Film Society of Lincoln Center and the Film Department of the Museum of Modern Art, was ushered in by BILL CUNNINGHAM NEW YORK, a fascinating look at the New York Times photographer and his love/hate obsession with the city he calls both his mu...

Questions of sex and physical copulation always excited mankind. In all centuries! In 20-th century the mankind has gone through so-called sexual revolution - free love, free feelings, free sex. Now, in 21 century, people were satiated with sex, a sensuality, a pornography and have thought up a new way of the protest: against sex in general! There was a new movement - movement of the asexuals! Sex destroys the person, speaks asexuals. Physical copulation stirs to spiritual development of the person, they approve. Whether they are right?
Musical comedy ANTISEX is the movie about it!. The statistics approves, that each 100-th inhabitant of the Earth - asexual! Also it is very serious problem of that time in which we live! But... The Mankind being dared will leave the complexes and lacks! We have tried to consider very serious problem of our epoch through a comedy.
This is the not boring story about sexual disfunction, not the cool erotic movie. This is the funniest fairy tale about love! The love story between ordinary man and not so ordinary woman… She’s not sexless – she’s just asexual. It is ASEXUALITY! It’s just a movement! And you probably heard about it before! But! Never like that! The concept is: sex could destroy your individuality! But the man-hero will find the way how to fight for his love! And of course: Love always wins! Lot’s of music, dances, sudden turning-points…

Saturday, June 10----An Israeli director for a Southern Gothic story set in 1960s Florida may seem like an odd choice, but for Ido Mizrahy, the director of the American Independent film THINGS THAT HANG FROM TREES, his foreigness allowed him to bring subtle observations to this story of small town life.
The film, which is screening in the American Independents Competition here, is written and based on the autobiographical novella of Aaron Louis Tordini. Tordini grew up in St. Augustine, Florid...
