CREMASTER 4 (1994) adheres most closely to the project's biological model. This penultimate episode describes the system's onward rush toward descension despite its resistance to division. The logo for this chapter is the Manx triskelion - three identical armored legs revolving around a central axis. Set on the Isle of Man, the film absorbs the island's folklore ... close

A group of scientists travel to a remote island to study the effects of nuclear weapons tests, only to get stranded when their airplane mysteriously explodes.

In Vera Cruz in the 1940s, Nacho, an Indian, waits tables at Don Lázaro's café at Hotel Ofélia. He falls for Lola, an opium-addicted, alcoholic whore who's hopelessly in love with Gardenia Wilson, a masked wrestler who slept with her once but knows she's unbalanced. Don Lázaro warns Nacho about Lola, and Nacho knows his love will be unrequited, but he'll do anything, regardless of how degrading, to be near her. Lola, for her part, can be sadistic. Republican exiles who are regulars at the café encourage Lola's desire to assassinate Franco. Nacho in turn mixes this political mirage with his fascination with the plot of "The Mikado." Where do fantasies and obsessions lead? close
A three-minute long insight into the life of completely unusual people – a group of pacifists forced into hiding in the cellar of a ruinous house to escape more
A three-minute long insight into the life of completely unusual people – a group of pacifists forced into hiding in the cellar of a ruinous house to escape a war tribunal. The difficulties of war are manly endured by the film’s characters. This film, like most of Yufit’s works, shows his love of 1920’s avant garde cinema, which was considered the highest pinnacle in cinematography. The director believes the art of moving pictures was more heartfelt before sound and colour. “The development of technologies is not a particularly positive thing for human existence,” says Yufit. —Arsenals Film Festival close

In the old, 20 years of unrenovated St. Petersburg apartment live an old grandmother and her bachelor grandson. The situation corresponds to the characters of the tenants: the grandmother has conditionally antique coziness, the grandson has a mixture of a computer, discs and spotlights, among which guests gather. If they do not arrange “heart-to-heart conversations”, they participate in a cool artistic orgy. One day in the life of this apartment fights with its “originality” in the air.
Arthouse film Konstantin Seliverstov "Adjoining rooms" may well represent the genre of non-fiction (unfictional): with an abundance of elements of ballet, porn, high lyrics and documentary, it has a "blurred" plot. close

Cremaster 5 (55 min, 1997) is a five-act opera (sung in Hungarian) set in late-ninteenth century Budapest. The last film in the series, Cremaster 5 represents the moment when the testicles are finally released and sexual differentiation is fully attained. The lamenting tone of the opera suggests that Barney invisions this as a moment of tragedy and loss. The primary character is the Queen of Chain (played by Ursula Andress). Barney, himself, plays three characters who appear in the mind of the Queen: her Diva, Magician, and Giant. The Magician is a stand-in for Harry Houdini, who was born in Budapest in 1874 and appears as a recurring character in the Cremaster cycle. close

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

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

Apichatpong Weerasethakul brought an appetite for experimentation to Thai cinema with his debut feature, an uncategorizable work that refracts documentary impressions of his homeland through the surrealist concept of the exquisite corpse game. Enlisting locals to contribute improvised narration to a simple tale, Apichatpong charts the collective construction of the fiction as each new encounter imbues it with unpredictable shades of fantasy and pathos. close

CREMASTER 2 (1999) is rendered as a gothic Western that introduces conflict into the system. On the biological level it corresponds to the phase of fetal development during which sexual division begins. In Matthew Barney's abstraction of this process, the system resists partition and tries to remain in the state of equilibrium imagined in Cremaster 1 ... close
