牛头怪 Acclaimed Mexican-Canadian auteur Nicols Pereda returns to the Festival with Minotaur,牛头怪 a pendant to his 2009 feature Juntos. Shot in the Mexico City apartment of Pereda’s signature actor Gabino Rodrguez,麻豆影视文化传媒app最新版 Minotaur is an incandescent chamber piece that observes three thirtysomethings (Rodrguez, Luisa Pardo and Francisco Barreiro) as they sleep, dream, read, and receive visitors (including the housekeeper who takes care of them) in their communal space. A lovely and lethargic spell is cast as an ambiguous, Marienbad-like love triangle emerges among the trio, conveyed through literature (books function as telepathic transmitters and definers of relationships), choreography, and the acute physical presence of the three leads. Extending Pereda’s recurring interests in class, social structure and family relations in Mexican society in its wraithlike fantasy of a leisure class that is quite literally sustained in its narcoleptic existence by the ministrations of the domestic help, Minotaur evokes the films of Tsai Ming-liang in its distended naturalism, ritualistic solitude, and creation of a cloistered world suffused with longing. The surreal aura of Minotaur seeps beyond the confines of the trio’s apartment into a strange "night without distance" in Lois Patio’s hallucinatory portrait of border smuggling in the Gers Mountains between Portugal and Galicia. Casting real townsfolk, some of whom were smugglers in their youth, Patio places their stiffly Straubian presences within cross-processed, multilayered tableaux of rocks, river, and trees — an ever-indeterminate place that has imbibed and borne witness to innumerable, desperate acts of survival. Conjuring an instant in the memory of a landscape filled with ghosts, Night without distance extracts spellbinding fantasy from the real.直到视线陷入黑暗,夏初禾都不能理解,一向高傲的婆婆怎么会对自己做出这种事来。她可没心思跟许知岁多说一句话,只看着许知岁那张脸她都觉得厌烦。他没命地跑着,脑中全是二虎子的模样。其实算起来,他不见这个弟弟已经足有三十多年了,但在宁不凡的脑海中却不曾淡忘,越是想念,就越会想起二虎的死后的惨样,这是宁不凡心中一道永远抹不平的伤疤!“小少爷,这是你的同学啊?不知道他们父母是哪位商界精英?我让他们来接。”
