Machan
Italy/Germany/Sri Lanka | 2007 | col | 109 mins | dir. Uberto Pasolini, with Dharmapriya Dias, Gihan de Chickera | cert. 15
Living on the margins of society, under impossible pressures, a group of desperate slum dwellers find an invitation to a handball tournament in Bavaria. The one way ticket to the West could ...be the answer to their prayers and a solution to all their problems.
Pasolini's impulse to make Machan apparently stemmed from 'the discovery of an absurd true event' that inspired him to confront the immigration policies of the West in a 'non-didactic, humorous way'.
tue 5 jan 3.00pm | 6.05pm | 8.30pm
The 8.30pm screening will be followed by Q&A with dir. Uberto Pasolini

Magique!
France | 2008 | col | 91 mins | dir. Philippe Muyl, with Marie Gillain, Cali, Antoine Dulèry, Louis Dussol | cert. PG
Betty (Marie Gillain) is raising her ten-year-old son Tommy alone on an isolated farm. The boy has never known his father and imagines him to be an astronaut. Each night, Tommy watches the ...sky, waiting for his father's return – Betty hasn't the heart to tell him the truth as she has problems of her own. She struggles to earn enough money, while her online attempts to find a male companion have so far been in vain. Tommy plans to use his own brand of magic to bring his mother out of her sad state and finds the perfect opportunity to do just that when the circus comes to town.
