Zagreus

Synopsis

Zagreus is a film about the psychic wound at the heart of the modern world we live in, a wounding that has detached us from the primal energies that were our lifeblood at the dawning of civilization, in exchange for a devotion to the dual hegemony of logic and technology.

The View From Above The View From Above

Director: Charlie Cattrall

Year: 2024

After a terrorist bombing, junior intelligence officer Helena Brennan is tasked with gathering information about a radical Muslim cleric - the notorious and elusive al Sharif. On travelling to Pakistan, Helena becomes involved in a botched mission to capture one of al Sharif’s key lieutenants. One of her colleagues is murdered, and the other is kidnapped and later executed, as Helena’s world disintegrates around her. She must hunt down the perpetrators to find redemption. <br /> That’s the story. But the film doesn’t show you how the story unfolds. Instead, you encounter its characters alone in a black void, staring into the camera’s lens. Their faces are the film’s landscapes. They report on the lives they are forced to live and the harrowing world that we’ve imagined for them. THE VIEW FROM ABOVE is a film that asks spectators to confront the brutal, misogynist and white-supremacist ideologies of the stories we consume as entertainment. It seeks to reveal the role that so many contemporary thrillers force audiences to play and invites them to regret learning their lines.
