The anti-budget film Kado is a film permeated with Kafkaesque sentiments. Here, as in the stories of the famous writer, everything is built on absurdity, fear of the surrounding hostile world. This film is able to sow in the soul of the viewer a sense of anxiety, homelessness.
The main character of the film "Cado" is a lonely "white collar", an office plankton that attracts a gray and dull existence. Every day like his twin brother is like the day before. Dirty shabby apartment, ridiculous and boring paperwork, poor scrambled eggs for breakfast - hopeless everyday life, they have no end.
One day the hero wakes up and realizes that everything looks and happens differently, something has changed. Perhaps his inner self has come into conflict with nauseating reality. Now he is either half asleep, or half awake. The viewer cannot fully understand whether the main character died or simply moved to another, parallel world. Anxiety contributes to the open finale of the film. The genre of this film does not lend itself to unambiguous definition – it is fiction and grotesque, surrealism, bitter irony, a symbolic denunciation of the realities of modern society. close

This film is about what the routine of everyday life can do to the human mind and psyche. It also reflects on the importance of the choices we make and how limited these choices are in the first place. The plot evolves around a family of four. They live in the suburbs, in a strange villa that appears, through a complex game of mirrors, to be more like a piece of installation art than a real house. The main character, who hardly appears on screen, is the son, a man in his thirties. Suffering from asthma and eczema since childhood, he uses his condition to manipulate his parents and his sister. Thus the existence of the terrorized family turns into an endless ritual of attempting to satisfy his whims, and always on the alert for yet another one of his “health crises”. Las Meninas resembles the scattered pieces of a puzzle. It is up to the viewer to assemble them in order to form his very own picture – something that makes the film itself personal and unique. close

At times he uses violence or oral rape to get what he wants until he grows too exasperated. Most of the movie consists of improvised dialogue or rants, and meandering scenes in a weapons shop, a railway, and a meeting where the man performs a bizarre magic performance with chickens, eggs and a cardboard box.. close

David, an independent photographer, and Katia, an unemployed woman, leave Los Angeles, en route to the southern California desert, where they search a natural set to use as a backdrop for a magazine photo shoot. They find a motel in the town of Twentynine Palms and spend their days in their sport-utility vehicle, discovering the Joshua Tree Desert, and losing themselves on nameless roads and trails. Frantically making love all the time and almost everywhere, they regularly fight, then kiss and make up, with little else going on in their empty relationship and quite ordinary daily life--until something horrible and hideous brutally puts an end to their trip. close

The protagonist of The Wooden Room is a director of documentaries, who lives with his wife - who is as stoic as he - in an isolated hut in the woods. The director is obsessed by filming marginal events in life. The closer he can get to these events with his camera, the more he becomes involved with them. In the end he falls victim to them. The film, with no dialogue and hardly any sound, is an experimental meditation on the complex, continually-changing relationship between a film-maker and his subject. close
