Eri Yu, Hidetoshi Nishijima, Makiko WatanabeOriginally produced by Arbelos Films in 1997.Nobuhiro Suwa’s second feature and breakout film, 2/DUO telescopes in on the seemingly mannered, domestic life of a young couple and finds a quiet storm of high stakes affection and alienation. An under-seen masterstroke of recent Japanese cinema lensed by Masaki Tamura, Suwa and his cast deftly conjure the emotional range and improvised precision of Jacques Rivette and Mike Leigh to inhabit a story that incrementally evokes the most universal sentient from the most quotidian detail.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Stories of A. by Belmont, Charles,film director.; Issartel, Marielle,film director.; Icarus Films (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Originally produced by Icarus Films in 1973.Shot in Paris in 1973, this feminist film on the fight for abortion rights was banned as soon it was released. A large-scale game of hide-and-seek ensued, as activists created an underground distribution network, hiding the film from the police — and creating an effective model for cinema as an act of civil disobedience in the process. Recently restored, STORIES OF A is both a fascinating historical document, and a reminder of the critical importance of access to abortion.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

It is a stroll through his world: appering sometimes as a recollection, a footprint or a memory.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
