Recommend this film

Squatterpunk is a daring and adventurous film shot in the kind of slum neighbourhood where police protection is rare. The film, energetic and funny in a place that is supposed to be depressing, does not exactly fit into the social awareness approach of a direct cinema documentary. The score of the film is loud if not deafening. And not in vogue. Director Khavn, the enfant terrible of Filipino cinema, brings us back to the ‘no future’ eighties of authentic anarchic punk. But it is consistent in its style of black-and-white images and its rhythmic montage that is clearly driven by the music-based sound track. Compared to the ironic collage way of working in most of Khavn’s other films, this one is crystal clear if not neat. Well, only in comparison with his other sometimes exuberant experiments. By any other standard, it is a wild and pulsating film. Squatterpunk shows something of life in the slums in a quite special way. It shows how poor, forgotten and ignored children can have a good time. Playing and swimming in rotting garbage can apparently be fun. So it is not the cliché image of tears in a child’s eyes that makes us aware of this disgraceful situation but the vitality and pleasure of the protagonists. In addition, maybe even stronger than pity, this pleasure enforces the inevitable message: no future.

Single Shot Indonesia

Single Shot Indonesia

I mere end ti år, vender den hollandske filminstruktør Leonard Retel Helmrich tilbage til sine bedsteforældres hjemland, for at iagttage og filme de tumultagtige hastige ændringer i de år, af den økonomiske og kulturelle globalisering i Indonesien. Dafilms portalen viser nu alle tre film fra hans berømte dokumentarfilm trilogi (herunder den sidste del – Position among the Stars). På baggrund af spændinger i det indonesiske samfund, udfolder der sig, foran Helmrichs kamera, livet af Shamsudinns familien, der i slumkvartererne i Jakarta oplever sin hverdagshistorie om deres daglige arbejde og bekymringer, kærlighed og gensidig fjendtlighed. I ugen fra 21. maj kan I se de første to film fra trilogien -The Eye of the Day og Shape of the Moon gratis.

Østlige forjættelse

Østlige forjættelse

I denne uge tilbydes Dafilms portalens tilskuere en god portion europæisk eksotisme. Rundvisningen på det karakteristiske landskab i Østeuropa bliver formidlet til tilskuere i tre bemærkelsesværdige dokumentarfilm. Selv om filmene „Shutka Book of Records“, „The Mosquito Problem“, „Bahrtalo“ fortæller historier om mennesker, der for det meste er temmelige fattige, skal man ikke forvente tunge sociale dramaer. Man kan nemlig have et lykkeligt liv også uden penge!
