Dollhouse Dollhouse

Kirsten Sheridan / Ireland / 2012 / 95 min

Through skilful employment of improvisation director Kirsten Sheridan follows five teens on an unruly ravaging adventure, a process of achieving knowledge of oneself and understanding of one another.

Five young people break into a house when the owners are away. They are like aliens amidst the clean, stylish environment and modern fittings. Their urge to demolish seems to know no bounds as they burn a trail of destruction through the pristine rooms with their expensive furniture and decor. After hours of dedicated devastation in a bizarre caricature of family life, the boy next door turns up at their door. His presence seems to dramatically change the group dynamics; alongside the seemingly unbridled aggression hidden secrets slowly surface.

The reason I wanted to make this kind of film is to explore what I see as a new world, a lost world that teenagers seem to inhabit these days, no necessity in their lives, no responsibility and therefore no centre to their existence.« (Kirsten Sheridan)

Quentin Dupieux

Friday, 29. 03. 2024 / 20:30 / Main Hall

The French master absurdist Quentin Dupieux (Mandibles) pays homage to his idol with a playful and unpredictable “non-biography”, which demonstrates that Dalí’s greatest work of art was his personality. Here it is—the caaaaardinal and delicioooooous film that reveals a Dalí never before seen by the public, proving, if there is even need for proof, that Daaaaaalí is probably the only artist on this miserable little planet.
