The splendor of the great

The needs of the traveler
Yeohaengjaui pilyo
Dir. Hong Sang-soo \ Drama \ South Korea \ 2024 \ Lit., Eng. subt. \ 1.30

A wide-brimmed hat to cover your face from the sun, a refreshing stream to dip your tired feet in, a few sips of the local drink makoli and a corner of the park to sit down and take a nap if necessary - these are the small needs of this traveler . The enigmatic middle-aged French woman seems to live only for the moment. We don't know how or why Iris ended up in South Korea, and we don't know what her future plans are. Iris herself doesn't seem to be bothered by these questions either. She is happy to earn a little money by teaching French in unconventional ways, chatting with random passers-by or just sitting down in an empty cafe to eat a bowl of Korean rice.

The deceptively simple film combines the unmistakable minimalist style of Korean director Hong Sang-soo ( "Our days") and the acting talent of the French cinema icon Isabelle Huppert, which wittily and sensitively reveals the banality of everyday life and the poetry born from it. The film premiered at the Berlin Film Festival, where it won the Silver Bear, the second most important Grand Jury Prize. N-13

Somebody Comes Into the Light
Somebody Comes Into the Light
Direct. Wim Wenders \ Japan \ 2023 \ lit., engl. subt. \ 0.08

The talents of Japanese dancer and choreographer Min Tanaka and German director Wim Wenders come together in the short film "Someone Enters the Light". A dance performance of amazing beauty is a dialogue between two creators, light and shadows reveal a mature body - like a hundred-year-old tree trunk, proudly bearing the imprints of time. Mina Tanaka, who studied classical ballet and modern dance, became famous for his experimental solo performances, often using his naked body as a stage costume. Lithuanian viewers have already seen a few seconds of this dreamy dance performance in Wim Wenders' Oscar-nominated film Puikios dienos. N-13
