The Amazonian Angel

L'Ange Amazonien. Un portrait de Lena Vandrey

Synopsis

This filmic portrait is born of a double movement: the meeting of Lena Vandrey with our cinematographic universe, our meeting with her pictorial world, her space and her collection of processional figures and articulated dolls. Crossings of imaginations, of mythologies: the South, the origins, the search for a "greecity", the search for the magical potential of the image, the feminine one as "force in love". Crossings of plastic gestures: one on canvas support, the other on photographic and filmic support. We invited the artist to become herself body-painting, filmed painting. We have staged her texts, her paintings, her objects, her space. Attempt to reveal it as an embodiment of its own mythology.

Movies that made me cry

A mixture of genuinely incredibly moving films where I don't trust anyone who DOESN'T cry at them, some basic bitch romcoms and the like where I blame the HRT for the fact I cried at it, some films that are decently moving but probably wouldn't have made me shed actual tears except that I watched them in rather fragile mental states, some totally random shit I can't even explain why I cried at it, and assorted stuff where my reason for crying is basically case-by-case. Films added in the order I remember them so if there's a movie you also cried at and wanna see if it's here (or is it just me who searches this website for the word "cry" just so I can see how many other people cried at the same movies I did?), it would probably be best to use the filters and/or sort options.
