FESTIVAL CLOSING: REFLECTION IN A DEAD DIAMOND
dir. Hélène Cattet, Bruno Forzani | BEL, LUX, ITA, FRA 2025 | 87'
We are ending the festival in style. The phenomenal Bom Belle will present the statuettes to the winners of the Black Horse Film, Animation, Music Videos, and Video Games competitions. Then we will invite you to a unique film—a feast for the cinematic eye and spirit. We will show – before its official Polish theatrical premiere – this year's hit of New Horizons and Octopus Film Festival.
Wonderful! Like Tarantino walking his Andalusian dog. Cinema was invented for films like this. A formal masterpiece flowing swiftly through the meanders of surrealism (René Magritte likes it!), feminist cinema of bloody revenge and a retro tribute to James Bond, comics and Italian genre cinema of the 1970s all in one. A kaleidoscope of emotions. The power of cinematic delight and even quiet emotion in a dark movie theater. A must-see for all who love cinema—old or new, popular, artistic, and independent.
