 The Children of LeningradskyYear: 2005 Country: Poland Review: Since the fall of the Iron Curtain an estimated four million children have found themselves living on the streets in the former countries of the Soviet Union. In the streets of Moscow alone there are over 30,000 surviving in this manner at the present time. The makers of the documentary film concentrated on a community of homeless children living hand to mouth in the Moscow train station Leningradsky. Eight-year-old Sasha, eleven-year-old Kristina, thirteen-year-old Misha and ten-year-old Andrej all dream of living in a communal home. They spend winter nights trying to stay warm by huddling together on hot water pipes and most of their days are spent begging. Andrej has found himself here because of disagreements with his family. Kristina was driven into this way of life by the hatred of her stepmother and twelve-year-old Roma by the regular beatings he received from his constantly drunk father. "When it is worst, we try to make money for food by prostitution," admits thirteen-year-old Artur. The pair of Polish filmmakers in this raw and very effective documentary even succeeded in filming an incident where the police patrol beat one of the street children and smear an entire tube of glue into his hair and onto his face. It is precisely this sniffing of the glue fumes that gives these children the possibility to at least for a little while escape the unforgiving world around them. It is a life of fleeting possibilities and danger. - IMDb Movie added at: 26.09.2013 |

 Härlig är jordenYear: 1991 Country: Sweden Review: Named one of the top ten shorts of all time by France's prestigious Clermont-Ferrand Short Film Festival, Andersson's haunting and hilarious short, an absurdist tale of average, everyday life turning horrific (and apocalyptic), is a mini Songs from the Second Floor. Its opening scene, evoking holocausts past and future, "is one of the most chilling three-minute shots in the history of movies" (Michael Atkinson, Village Voice). "Often very funny... a compassionate yet savage indictment of human cruelty, complacency, conformism and alienation" (Geoff Andrew, Time Out). - www.cinematheque.bc.ca Movie added at: 26.09.2013 |

...ya no puede caminar. Year: 2001 Country: Spain Actors and Actresses: Miriam Giovanelli, Junio Valverde Tags: bathing boy Review: A child, Pacheco, has a phobia of small animals (insects, worms, lizards and so on). His father, in an attempt to help him get over his phobia, exposes him to a very unusual therapy: he makes him sleep with some of these animals closed in a jar and kept in the house. In this way, Pacheco slowly gets used to contact with the animals and is finally able to overcome his initial repugnance to the point of even feeling affection for them. So much so that the final result goes way over his father's wildest expectations. - IMDb Movie added at: 26.09.2013 |
