Het regisseursduo achter Leviathan duikt in lichamen en opent glinsterende werelden van extatische abstractie. Deze fascinerende documentaire deinst niet terug voor gore of ingewanden en opereert in ondergefinancierde Parijse ziekenhuizen, waar artsen een flinke dosis humor injecteren in het verval.

This breathtaking view of the American West revealed the groundbreaking vision of Lucien Castaing-Taylor & Ilisa Barbash from Harvard’s Sensory Ethnography Lab (Leviathan) through its visual and aural pleasures. Newly restored, Sweetgrass is one of the defining documentaries of this century.

After Leviathan won a slew of awards, its directorial duo stunned audiences with this portrait of an infamous cannibal and his brother. Unflinching? Too feeble a word for this one. As ignoble urges sidle up to fraternal loyalty in extreme close-ups, an air of obsession and moral ambivalence reigns.
