CONSPIRING WITH THE DEMONS
SEASON FOR short FILMS
THAT THING CALLED ...
Lars von Trier is back in Cannes. His highly anticipated Antichrist featuring Charlotte Gainsbourg and Willem Dafoe is a Gothic horror tale that unfolds in a woodland scenery possessed by darkness.
Dorte Bengtson’s animation The Sylpphid is selected for Cinéfondation, Rúnar Rúnarsson’s Anna is showcased in Directors’ Fortnight, and Daniel Borgman’s Lars and Peter is running in the short film competition.
A diva in distress, an adolescent in rage, a forbidden embrace. Difficult love in various forms fuels the stories by first-time feature film directors Martin Pieter Zandvliet, Morten Giese and Nicolo Donato.
