Festa Incognita　映画紹介

『Mami Wata』

土着信仰根付くアフリカの小村。力無き巫女を打倒し、病院や学校を作ろうとクーデターの火種が燻っていた
幻想的でハイコントラストなモノクロ映像が描くのは、アニミズムと現代思想の対立。邦画やインド映画のようにノリウッドでしか作れない新ジャンルだ

[che bunbun🐝 死ぬまでに観たい世界遺産映画101 @routemopsy]

『MAMI WATA』:シメギウムさんのイベントで鑑賞。観るのは2度目だが、やはり白黒の使い分けにより人間を光らすあの唯一無二な画は面白いな。催眠的なのは変わらないが、C・J・オバシ監督、ポテンシャル高い。

[C.J. “Fiery” Obasi @FieryCJ]

Just under a couple of weeks ago I began filming my next feature in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil titled LA PYRAMIDE - a Nigeria, UK, Brazil, US, Columbia, Senegal co-production set in Brazil 🇧🇷, New Orleans, Louisiana 🇺🇸 and Senegal 🇸🇳. And as I embark on this mystical diaspora voyage, I would like to thank my international talented team, my family and all lovers of cinema. This is my most ambitious, yet personal project thus far. A new canvas, with a kaleidoscope of possibilities. A new vision. Vive le cinéma! Viva o cinema!

Follow "La Pyramide" on socials for updates.
