Reflections of the lost

Staff Reporter


Bangalore Film Society is organising a film festival


BANGALORE: The Bangalore Film Society has yet another feast for film buffs presenting the chronicles of the lost. .

On Friday, it will feature avant-garde director and cinematographer Nicolas Roeg’s Walkabout at 6.30 p.m.

The 1971 film is a brutal and poetic survival tale set in the Australian outback. This film was nominated for the Palm D’Or.

The next day will see the Chronicles of a Disappearance by director Elia Suleiman.

The film loosely follows and self-reflexively ridicules Suleiman as he embarks on an ambitious mission to chronicle the Palestine issue.

Jim Jarmusch’s Ghost Dog: Way of the Samurai will be screened on Sunday. The hero is another one of the director’s eternal loners, lost and in conflict with the world around him. And, he is on the run.

This film too was nominated for the Palm D’Or.

The venue is Ashirvad, 30, St. Mark’s Road Cross, Opposite State Bank of India, Ph: 25492774, 25493705, 9886213516

Though admission is for members only, non-members may arrive 15 minutes early and register themselves.
