.MOV International Film, Music, & Literature Festival


It is indeed the Opening.MOV this September 1, 2011. Thursday. 1:30pm to 11pm at The Podium, Activity Center. ADB Avenue, Ortigas Center, Pasig City

Here are the schedules:

3:30pm: SONGS FROM THE SECOND FLOOR
(Roy Andersson, Sweden. 1hr, 38min)
In a sour, gray city, filled with pale drunken salarymen and parading flagellants, everything goes wrong, pain is laughed at, businesses fail, traffic seizes up and a girl is made into a human sacrifice to save a corporation. Roy Andersson's "Songs From the Second Floor" is a collision at the intersection of farce and tragedy--the apocalypse as a joke on us.

9pm: Opening Film:
YEAR WITHOUT A SUMMER
(Tan Chui Mui, Malaysia. 1hr 27min)
A sensitive film, constructed as ebb and flow. In the first part, old friends look back on their childhood by the light of the moon. In the second part, young people come together in a place in the sun. The director of "Love Conquers All," Rotterdam winner in 2007, shot the film in the Malaysian village where she was born.
The first part of Year Without a Summer is set largely in the moonlight. On the evening when the singer Azam returns to the village he was so eager to flee as a little boy, he goes fishing in a boat with his friend Ali and his friend’s wife Minah.
They bob around in a boat as they tell each other old myths. When Minah shows she can hold her breath for three minutes and Azam does the same later, the camera waits calmly with the others until the time has passed. But for Azam that starts to last a very long time.
