A Matter of Interpretation Kkum-bo-da hae-mong

Lee Kwang-kuk / South Korea / 2014 / 99 min

A frustrated young actress is feeling depressed because nobody has come to the play in which she is acting. On top of that, she has broken up with her boyfriend. Having a think in a park, she receives a call from a friend informing her of having a bad dream about her and warning her to stay alert. Still sitting on the park bench, she meets a detective with a strange gift – he knows how to interpret dreams. The detective realises that her dream sounds just like a case he is working on. The plot quickly shifts to a plane where dream logic prevails, and the line between illusion and reality is not entirely clear.

An easy-going, minimalistic narrative presented with astounding proficiency, in which a story emerges from a story, and reality and dreams are strangely intertwined. 

"As I started to make films I realised I thought a lot about dreams. When my father was sick, there were many incidents where he was confused between dreams and reality. I think that made me start to look at dreams and reality more closely." (Lee Kwang-kuk)

Daaaaaalí! Daaaaaalí!

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.
