Lisbon & Estoril Film Festival com Laurie Anderson, Wim Wenders e José Gil



De 6 a 15 de Novembro próximos, o festival dirigido por Paulo Branco, contará com a presença de nomes como Laurie Anderson, os realizadores Wim Wenders, Barbet Schroeder, Hans-Jürgen Syberberg ou Jonathan Demme, os escritores Don de Lillo, Juan Goytisolo (Prémio Cervantes 2014) e John Berger (Prémio Booker 1972); o fotógrafo Kai Wiedenhöfer; e pensadores como Jean Douchet, Bernard Eisenschitz, Arnaud Villani ou Françoise Davoine.

Inserido no festival, o filósofo José Gil organiza um simpósio sobre loucura e criação artística - Bigger than Life, sob o signo do filme de Robert Rossen Lilith.

A performer, compositora, interprete e realizadora Laurie Anderson estará no LEFFEST para mostrar o seu filme-ensaio Heart of a Dog. A partir da sua própria experiência e das suas memórias de vida recente, marcada pelas perdas recentes da mãe e do marido, Lou Reed, Laurie Anderson traça uma pequena reflexão sobre temas como a vida e a morte.

 

O programa do LEFFEST incluirá uma exposição fotográfica de Wim Wenders e a ante-estreia do seu último filme, Every Thing Will Be Fine (2015).

The Clockworks, Mayday Mayday

Mayday Mayday, the latest from The Clockworks, a four-piece Irish post-punk band from Galway, Ireland, now based in London. Formed in 2019, the band consists of James McGregor (vocals and guitar), Sean Connelly (guitar), Damian Greaney (drums), and Tom Freeman (bass).  One of the most exciting new bands in the post-punk scene, a blend of indie rock and garage rock, with driving guitars and catchy melodies, currently working on their debut album. The Clockworks are a young band with a lot of potential, helping to bring Irish rock back to the forefront. Stay tuned!   

Iain McKell, "New Gypsies"

"Historically despised the new Gypsies are there by choice, not heritage. Unrelated to the Roma, the movement began in 1986 when a group of Post-Punk Anti-Thatcher protesters headed out of London into the English countryside. McKell followed these New Age Travellers to the West Country and over the years he watched them become a hybrid tribe - the new gypsies - present-day rural anarchists, living the subversive lifestyle in elaborately decorated horse-drawn caravans."

New Order - Video 5-8-6 [Extended 22:23 version]

“Video 5 8 6” is a song originally composed as “pap” (as Tony Wilson put it) for the opening night of the Haçienda on May 21, 1982. Parts of this pearl would become the basis for the Power, Corruption & Lies tracks “5 8 6” and “Ultraviolence”, as well as the associated 12-inch single “Blue Monday”.
