Ishtar (Director’s Cut)

Wildly underrated at the time of its release, Elaine May’s deceptively screwball comedy is a cross between a Hope and Crosby road movie and a trenchant satire about the Middle East that feels as relevant as it ever was. November 27 & December 4.

The Way It Is + The Ukrainian Cleaning Lady

In and around his own apartment in Warsaw, Łoziński explores a year in the lives of his neighbors; plus an intimate portrait of the filmmaker’s own cleaning lady, a single mother who left her native Ukraine seeking a better life.

How It’s Done

A political media advisor puts out a call for neophyte applicants for political candidacy, and hundreds apply in this dynamic, entertaining, and implicitly damning snapshot of opportunistic populism in action.

Recurring

Brazil

Terry Gilliam’s jaw-dropping dystopian science-fiction black comedy imagines a totalitarian surveillance society that would make Orwell envious. November 27 & December 4.

Chemo

Lozinski captures patients in an oncology clinic where they receive chemotherapy. The context and location engender profound reflections and wide-ranging conversation, each frame teeming with life, light, and humor.

Father and Son

On 12/4, Paweł Łoziński introduces the touching film he made with his father, Marcel, documenting a road trip from Warsaw to Paris.

You Have No Idea How Much I Love You

Lozinski’s unwaveringly intimate work documents a triangular psychotherapeutic encounter between a daughter, a mother, and a therapist.

.dog

A teenager on the verge of manhood idolizes his imprisoned father even though he barely remembers him. When the father is released after serving ten years, the boy anticipates finally getting to know him and making up for lost time.

Sirens

On the outskirts of Beirut, Lilas and her bandmates Shery, Maya, Alma, and Tatyana have big dreams but few opportunities. Shot and directed by L.A.-based filmmaker Rita Baghdadi, Sirens received its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival

Recurring

Heaven’s Gate (Director’s Cut)

This revisionist western, restored to its full length, is a marvel of ambition and complex storytelling, dramatizing the Johnson County War of 1892, when European settlers were targeted for death and displacement by cattle barons. December 9–10.

Expedition Content + Dead Birds

Constructed from audio recorded during the making of Robert Gardner’s landmark ethnographic documentary Dead Birds, this work by renowned sound artists is simultaneously an immersive sonic document and a deft critique of the ethnographic endeavor.

Recurring

The Shakedown

This Universal boxing picture by William Wyler, based on a story discovered by Wyler’s brother Robert, finds the then-young director honing his considerable skills.
