Ep77 Berlinale 2019 Part 1

We are really excited to put out the first of three special episodes cover the 2019 Berlin Film Festival which both Dario and Neil attended in a kind of tag team configuration. Having applied for a press pass for the Cinematologists, and was taking 40 his students to the festival, Neil had organised a whole raft of interviews with directors and critics which form parts 2&3 of our Berlinale coverage. Dario made a last minute decision to go for the opening weekend. So this first episode consists of 3 mini reports of each day's and then a rather bleary-eyed catch-up with Neil after he arrived after midnight on Sunday. The films discussed in this episode are: Rebels of the Neon God (1992, Tsai Ming-Liang) Shooting The Mafia (Kim Longionotto) Serendipity (Prune Nourry) Out Stealing Horses (Hans Petter Moland) Light of My Life (Casey Affleck) Systèm K (Renaud Barret) Der Boden Unter den Füben [The Ground Beneath my Feet] (Marie Kreutzer)
