XXI New British Film Festival
ONLINE
The event is held within UK-Russia Creative Bridge Programme 2020-21 organised by the Cultural and Education Section of the British Embassy in Moscow with the support of the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office
One of the most beloved foreign national festivals in Russia debuts online. Watch at home premieres and selected films from past British film festivals, from December 24 to January 10.
A special section of the festival is films made by Dominic Dromgoole, a prominent theatre director, whose stage works are well known to the audience of the TheaterHD project: in the lyrical pastoral film POND LIFE, the romantic comedy BENJAMIN, the hard drama UNDERCLIFFE Dominic is the producer, and MAKING NOISE QUIET is his debut as a director.
British fiction has always impressed with the authenticity of characters and relationships. The program of the festival includes beautiful romantic dramas of growing up PERFECT 10 and MAKE UP, an epic love film PINK WALL, a dramedy WILD HONEY PIE! and a life-affirming movie SWIMMING WITH MEN.
The dark, surreal, gothic side of the cinematography of the country famous for its absurdity and punk is presented at the festival by Jonathan Glazer's brilliant short film THE FALL. A poignant social statement - and at the same time a poignant family saga - is a documentary FOR SAMA, one of the main achievements of non-fiction films in a decade.
An important part of the festival program is lively documentaries about art: a candid portrait of Sir Ian McKellen MCKELLEN: PLAYING THE PART; THE WORL ACCORDING TO RADIOHEAD, dedicated to the great innovator musicians; THE WORLD ACCORDING TO ANISH KAPOOR, which allows look into the workshops of an incredible artist. HE DREAMS OF GIANTS is an action-packed chronicle of how Terry Gilliam finally completed his long-suffering gigantic project about a new Don Quixote. THE MAN WHO STOLE BANKSY is a chronicle of the adventures of the most mysterious artist of our day.
Outstanding choreographer Akram Khan became the hero of two festival films at once: in THE DANCER AND THE FIGHTER he explores the connection between dance and martial arts, in a futuristic sketch CAN WE LIVE WITH ROBOTS? he establishes contact with artificial intelligence.
