Next, we’re watching ‘Possession’ set in Cold War Berlin, Anna and Marc’s marriage is disintegrating for undisclosed reasons, her increasing infidelity spiralling into the occasional yet unforgettable body horror that led to this film being listed as a 1980s ‘video nasty’. Andrzej Zulawski’s direction, which deeply reflects his own divorce, has been criticised as misogynistic in his treatment of the fictional, Anna, and abusive for actress, Isabelle Adjani. Join us to question this agitated frenzy of a horror next Monday 6 March.

We will send out 2 short texts beforehand to anyone who fancies reading around the film/related subjects and there will be the option of discussing these after the screening.

28.02.23 – THE CREMATOR (1969)
