Mysterious Object at Noon (DVD)
Part documentary part experimental narrative, Apichatpong Weerasethakul`s MYSTERIOUS OBJECT AT NOON may occupy a genre all its own. Inspired by the Surrealist storytelling technique known as Exquisite Corpse, Mr. Weerasethakul roamed the Thai countryside interviewing people to contribute a line or perhaps a chapter to his narrative. What results is a film unlike any other, simultaneously a documentary about the people of Thailand`s many villages and their surreal narrative, built one line at a time, that begins with a story about Dogfahr, a caring teacher who teaches a disabled boy and ends, quite literally, miles from there.NR"

Camus` winner of the Palme d`Or winner at the 1959 Cannes Film Festival is a modern reinterpretation of the myth of Orpheus which simultaneously celebrates the beauty, music and people of Brazil. In this version of the ages-old tale, Orpheus is a streetcar conductor and star Carnival dancer who is in betrothed to the determined Mira but is in love with Eurydice. As Mira and Death himself pursue the doomed Orpheus and his lover through the streets of Rio de Janeiro, Carnival literally brings the streets to life. Lush photography and the timeless and brilliant bossa nova sounds of Jobim give the film a distinct power and beauty.
