Eccentrico, solitario e afflitto da angoscia esistenziale, Qohen da tempo lavora su un misterioso progetto - il Teorema Zero - volto a scoprire lo scopo della vita, qualora ne esista uno. Il suo lavoro e il suo isolamento sono a volte interrotti dalle visite della sensuale e vistosa Bainsley (Mélanie Thierry) e dell'adolescente prodigio Bob (Lucas Hedges). Sarà grazie a una delle invenzioni di quest'ultimo che Qohen affronterà un viaggio all'interno delle dimensioni nascoste della sua anima, dove si nascondono le risposte che sia lui che Management stanno ricercando per provare o confutare il Teorema Zero. Note del regista Terry Gilliam Quando ho girato Brazil nel 1984, volevo dipingere l’immagine del mondo in cui pensavo stessimo vivendo allora.

He lives in isolation in a burnt-out chapel, waiting for a phone call which he is convinced will provide him with answers he has long sought. Qohen works on a mysterious project, delegated to him by Management (Matt Damon), aimed at discovering the purpose of existence - or the lack thereof - once and for all. But his solitary existence is disturbed by visits from the flirtatious Bainsley (Mélanie Thierry), and Bob (Lucas Hedges), Management’s wunderkind son. Yet it is only once he experiences the power of love and desire that he is able to understand his very reason for being.

  • The Imaginarium of Terry Gilliam
    The Imaginarium of Terry Gilliam By Jake Crinion Dublin Business School This dissertation has been submitted in partial fulfilment of the BA (Hons) Film degree at Dublin Business School. I confirm that all work included in this thesis is my own unless indicated otherwise. The Imaginarium of Terry Gilliam Jake Crinion Dr. Barnaby F. Taylor rd 3 June 2015 2 Acknowledgments I would first like to thank my thesis supervisor Dr. Barnaby Taylor for his guidance and patience, as well as the freedom he provided our class to pursue self-directed projects in an encouraging environment. I would also like to thank the lecturers that have opened up educating and entertaining avenues in cinema and film production that have helped shape my college experience over the past three years. I want to further thank my family, for their constant support; my friends – new and old- for their timely help, motivation, ideas, and for keeping me from letting this thesis turn into the “Lost in La Mancha” of dissertations. And last, but not least, my class - I could not have asked for a better group of people to spend the past three years with. 3 Abstract Terry Gilliam’s career started out in animation but he always wanted to make films. He began directing films when he was part of the famous comedy group Monty Python. His first filmmaking experience was when co-directed Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Following this, he went on to direct by himself, making visually rich, thematically intelligent, and densely detailed films such as Time Bandits, Brazil, and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen.

Included within are details of each seller’s acquisition policy, which markets they attend, at what stage they prefer to be approached and whether they pay advances. There’s also a list of the Australian films that agents have handled. The directory was compiled through contact with sellers and information derived from Screen Australia’s market reports, forums and other activities since 2012. This directory of sales agents is in no way a recommendation or endorsement from Screen Australia. Producers should ask around before signing up with an agent to be sure they have found the right sales partner and to check previous business dealings have gone smoothly for all parties before proceeding with any deals. When appointing a sales agent, producers of commercially attractive titles are encouraged to negotiate for beneficial terms. Screen Australia regularly updates this directory following key markets. Directory of International Sales Agents September 2021 TOP TIPS FOR PRODUCERS In December 2014, the sales agents in this directory were canvassed for their top tips for producers. Here’s what they had to say: • Be social. Attend networking events, functions, co-production markets and • Limit the number of projects you pitch per meeting.
