  • MIKAEL CROSS Presenterar
    MIKAEL CROSS presenterar En film av Tobias Leo Nordquist i samproduktion med Film i Dalarna, Ljud & Bildmedia AB, Nordic United AB & Index Equity Sweden AB VITT SKRÄP är en spännande actionthriller som utspelas på 80-talet med en nick till några av de mest minnesvärda spänningsfilmerna med oförglömliga karaktärer, och en blandning av komedi och action där alla kämpar för att få kontroll över sina öden – och för en del av bytet. Den unika regin och ljuddesignen i VITT SKRÄP för publikens tankar till gangsterfilmklassikerna ”Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels” och Tarantinos legendariska ”Pulp Fiction”. En nyskapande film med action i ursinnigt, pulshöjande och oförutsägbart tempo. Ola Rapace Ida Engvoll Handlingen i korthet I sökandet efter försoning med sitt förflutna hamnar Sami (Ola Rapace) i ett litet samhälle där han träffar Kim (Ida Engvoll). De båda möter den lokale gangstern Gubben (Donald Högberg) som driver ett till synes sofistikerat metamfetaminimperium tillsammans med sina två söner Conny (Peter Viitanen) och Kenneth (Erik Bolin). Till en början är allt frid och fröjd men när droger börjar cirkulera på bygden utan Gubbens tillåtelse riktas uppmärksamheten mot nykomlingen Sami som inser att han är i en farlig situation. För att komma undan med livet i behåll måste han snabbt göra upp en plan. Donald Högberg Erik Bolin Peter Viitanen Dakota Trancher Williams Tobias Leo Nordquist – regi Efter en fil kand i Theater Arts från universitetet i San Diego 2006 började Tobias arbeta som filmfotograf och klippare, men insåg snart att det var det var som regissör och producent han ville verka. Bara två år senare grundade han sitt eget produktionsbolag Carnivale Pictures och har sedan dess regisserat och producerat prisbelönade kortfilmer, dokumentärer, TV-serier och musikvideor.

  • Full Cinematic Retrospective of Director Andrei Tarkovsky This Summer at MAD
    Full Cinematic Retrospective of Director Andrei Tarkovsky this Summer at MAD Andrei Tarkovsky, Sculpting in Time presents the work of the revolutionary director and includes screenings—all on 35 mm—of all seven feature films and a behind-the-scenes documentary Stalker, 1976. Andrei Tarkovsky. New York, NY (June 8, 2015)—The Museum of Arts and Design presents a full cinematic retrospective of Andrei Tarkovsky’s work this summer with its latest cinema series, Andrei Tarkovsky, Sculpting in Time, from July 10 through August 28, 2015. Over the course of just seven feature films, Tarkovsky produced a poetic and enigmatic body of work that expanded the possibilities of cinema as an art form and transformed a wide range of genres including science fiction, war stories, film essays and historical dramas. Celebrating the legacy of this revolutionary director, the retrospective includes screenings of Tarkovsky’s seven feature films on 35 mm, as well as a behind-the-scenes documentary that reveals the process behind his groundbreaking practice and cinematic achievements. “Few directors have had as large of an influence on cinema as Andrei Tarkovsky,” says Jake Yuzna, MAD’s Director of Public Programs. “Working under censorship and with little support from the Soviet Union, Tarkovsky fought fiercely for his conceptualization of cinema as a singular and vital art form. Reconsidering the role of films in an age of increasing technology, Tarkovsky saw cinema as not merely a tool for communicating information, but as ‘a moral barometer in a sea of competing narratives.’” 2 COLUMBUS CIRCLE NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10019 P 212.299.7777 F 212.299.7701 MADMUSEUM.ORG Premiering on July 10 with Tarkovsky’s science fiction classic, Solaris, the retrospective showcases the director’s distinctive and influential aesthetic, characterized by expressive, sweeping takes, the evocative use of landscapes, and his method of “sculpting in time” with a camera.
