\u201cWhat\u2019s in a name,\u201d asked William Shakespeare in Romeo and Juliet<\/i>. It is everything, nothing, but above all, deeply personal. The films here are named after their main character, inviting us to know them in complex, multi-faceted portrayals.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Family ties are explored in Richard<\/i> (what\u2019s behind the memories of our parents?) and Eva<\/i> (what are the roots of motherhood?). Pubert Jimbob may be the quirkiest name ever for a character, but it\u2019s nothing compared to a world where lumps have a mouth and people have no face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The name Leela is the stuff dreams of freedom are made of when your world oppresses you. Claudia (Working Title)<\/i> interrogates the ethics of filmmaking when it reifies an actress in the process. And Suleyman can be hailed as a modern anti-hero in the underbelly of Paris. Expect films filled with secrets and dilemmas. Say their names!\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
