"His thesis on the artistic process is therefore a straightforward one: 'A good work is how well it depicts human sadness.'" @joseph_owen_'s final review from Locarno, dives deep into a curious, yet radically empathetic Japanese competition work. https://t.co/F0ht2EsS0G

Two distinct, writerly stories emerge from Sho Miyake's pen in his wistful adaptation of Yoshiharu Tsuge's manga Mr. Ben and His Igloo, A View of the Seaside.

"Again, the viewer is invited to fill in the gaps: what do we need to perceive in order to understand?" @joseph_owen_ reviews Alexandre Koberidze's Dry Leaf, live from Locarno! https://t.co/AJq56dYvnc

Dry Leaf, Alexandre Koberidze's much anticipated follow up to What Do We See When We Look At The Sky?, is another meandering exploration of family and football.

"Mordantly funny, Sorella di Clausura offers a balm to the upright seriousness found elsewhere in Locarno’s main competition" @joseph_owen_ reviews Sorella Di Clausura, live from Locarno! https://t.co/RZOanbA4rQ
journeyintocinema.com
Ivana Mladenović's mordantly funny Romanian film Sorella di Clausura offers a welcome comic contrast to Locarno's usual so-so-serious fare.

"What Aljafari has managed to achieve in With Hasan in Gaza, through this edited and refashioned material, is, in many ways, astonishing." @joseph_owen_ reviews With Hasan in Gaza, playing in competition at Locarno! https://t.co/wno0VaQqYj

Kamal Aljafari's urgent With Hasan in Gaza might be shot in the autumn of 2001, but its images speak firmly to the present onslaught by the Israeli regime.

"Its demonstration of the so-called didactic method reveals an influence on one of the great unheralded films of the 21st century: Malmkrog." @joseph_owen_ reviews Roberto Rossellini's 1974 history film Year One, playing in Locarno Heritage https://t.co/aWdljmSu8U
journeyintocinema.com
A fresh restoration of Roberto Rossellini's hagiography of a centrist Italian prime minister proves an unlikely forebearer for Cristi Puiu's iconic Malmkrog.

"Their blurring of reality and imagination serves a more grounded purpose: to understand social relationships in periods of geopolitical crisis." @joseph_owen_ reviews White Snail, the latest work by Space Dogs duo Elsa Kremser and Levin Peter! https://t.co/D6EsFx2jlI
journeyintocinema.com
Space Dogs directors Elsa Kremser and Levin Peter's first fully fiction feature White Snail is a dark and disturbing love story set in Belarus.
